Welcome to the forum! There is a very recent thread on a face lift conversion - and I get the impression that the rear tail lights (in the rear pillars) are a straight swap.

Not quite that simple, as the upper lights (fog and reverse) are a different shape. The facelift are taller than the pre-facelift, as they have had a reflector added to the bottom, to make the upper and lower lights look more cohesive. This means that the facelift upper lights will be fouling the top of the bumper.
