Default Tail Light Change

I have a 2000 FLSTF FatBoy. It has the tombstone style tail light on it, and I would like to swap it out for the new led (smoke lens) tail light.

Will I need to purchase the fender bracket as well as the new light?
Will the new standard bracket fit properly on the fender after taking off the tombstone bracket (hole alignment), or will the new light fit on the tombstone bracket?

Would like to know what I'm getting into before spending hard earned money on something that won't fit.

Thanks: Larry
