If you're talking about the rear light here, there are only 5 wires running through the rear fender, 2 for the tail light, 2 for the turn signals and one ground which branches into 3. So if you can save any money by doing the wiring yourself, go for it because wiring these Lucas tail lights is simplicity itself.
I recently fitted the NewBoneville Lucas 564 tail light with rear turn signals, and was not pleased with the way that the tail light's chrome housing had been drilled to take the turn signals. When fitted the turn signals poked upward and backward slightly which made them look stupid. I've bought a new Lucas tail light and relocated the turn signals which also meant hacking the rear fender wiring harness but it looks much neater now. I've also fitted the Lucas tail light with a LED board. Boy am I pleased with it all now. See this thread:
