    Actually I have been replacing all my bulbs interior and exterior with LED's however I havne't done it yet to the tail lights. I'm looking at a lot of different designs on Ebay and can't really set my mind on one set. However the problem with the fuses might be in the relay, usually when you replace filament bulbs with LED in the tail lights you need an LED flasher relay to ensure the LED's receive the proper power and it also prevents them from flashing too quickly or not flashing at all.

      I changed mine, and quickly went back to the originals. The LEDs would not glow brighter with the brake pedal depressed.

          Don't they make LED bulbs for these type of things? There's gotta be someone somewhere that makes an LED bulb that lights up, then gets brighter with the brake..etc. You got the right number bulb right? Because there's always like, 5 different numbers for each bulb on the car.

              The actual LED tail light bulbs are out and have been out forever on Ebay and I already addressed the relay information in my first post on this topic. Those can be found on ebay also.

                        just the reverse light bulb was different I believe. The running light is a 194, and the turn/brake bulb was a 3157/3057 bulb, same as the front turn signal.

                        anyway, I bought those other two bulbs in LED form along with a load resistor, and it works great. Look for pics and vids in the 'pics' section a little later today
