Default LED taillights?

Anyone know if there's a replacement LED 'kit' for our tailights?

the only thing I've seen is the EVOLUTION corner panels which allow for the use of a 4" LED ...search for Offroad evolution corner panels and you'll see some good pictures

I have also been looking, no luck yet. SEMA is around the corner! Maybe someone will have something soon.

I don't want to change the whole taillight, just the bulbs.

Maybe I should just figure out the bulb model and try and search for a replacement that way. There must be some generic bulb->LED kits...

If your just looking for bulbs, get the bulb number and get them from eBay, that's what I did with my old car. Way cheaper than $25 a bulb

I Tried this search and it takes me back to this post. I also looked at Evo's web site and they don't show any corner guards

ive had problems in the past with swapping bulbs out for LED bulbs due to the very low power consumption making the circuit think a bulb is out, eg indicators "ticking" at double speed/etc...

would look good if it works though!
