Do a search here and on Rennlist.com. I remember someone listing each bulb and LED replacement. It may actually be cheaper to replace the entire assemblies with the ones available on Ebay. People have reported getting them for under $200, though I usually see them around $350.

I really don't get the "ricey" comment. The fixtures have pretty much the same look as OEM, but the plastic is newer. To replace just the bulbs, I would start here: SuperbrightLEDs.com. They have a good reputation for their products and customer service.

I have the LED replacement tail lights and have been very happy with the look. I tried the led bulbs in the stock housings but wasnt too impressed. You will not get the LED look with just the bulbs. They are a bit brighter than stock incandesant but not a game changer in the looks department IMO.

I had them a few years ago

They help , but for how cheap and more advanced led tails are go with them , u will spend 60$-80$ in bulbs alone

These had LED bulbs in , but we're also spray tinted to give a smoke look
