you can also buy the 1157 bulbs that are led. have not used them myself but have seen them and are pretty cheap. you also need a special flasher to go with them so they work right

they make a led conversion that goes in behind the factory lens and use the original bucket as well

I'm out of fleetside tail lights right now but I sell very nice LED lights that replace the tail light bulb and lens, they are one unit with about 30 leds. They run $65.00 a pair

I got the plug in led bulbs and they work grate and look stock and they are much less expensive. I bought a set of the full lens type from Classic Industries for my step side and they did not fit the housing that I had bought from them about 5 years before. If you go with the bulb type make sure you get read ones I here that they are brighter with the red lens than the white bulbs are.
