They will fit... the guy must be misinformed.

If they are listed to fit US models, they will most definitely fit ours.

You use your existing wiring anyways, it is part of the car. They push into the tail light and turn, much the same as the headlights and parkers.

I have never seen an Ebay seller refuse to sell something because of fitment.... Normally they just say you are on your own!!

If they're made for a USDM Mitsubishi CY4A Lancer it will fit. No question.

There are a couple of reasons why some sellers don't want to sell. Fitment is one. I'm not talking about plugging it in and using, but with some aftermarket parts there are some problems in fitments. Unnecessary gaps etc. Perhaps he just doesn't want any unnecessary problems.
