Hi John; the Hopkins Plug-In Simple Vehicle Wiring Harness # HM11140535 is the correct wiring harness for your 2008 Ford Taurus X. The # HM11140585 with the converter is required for the regular Ford Taurus, not the X. I don't know what the exact difference is but the converter is not required for your model.

Hey John, how did things go with the Hopkins wiring harness on your Taurus X? Did it connect smoothly without needing the converter? Your update could make it easier for others with the same vehicle.
