Seeing that the ending two numbers are diffrent, which I suspect would be (-09) more than likely not. Usually if they are compatable then a letter would be at the suffix of the part number like a,b,etc. Then again, it just may diffrent enough to warrent a diffrent part number. Maybe someone with an '09 would be kind enough to take a pic. I did not pu my '09 parts manuals yet, so I cannot help yet. I am in a retro-fitting project my self, Timberland got me thinking.
