L.E.D. tail lights

I was just looking at DigitalMonarch0's thread on the red tail light mod and now see that these tail lights do come apart, has anyone ever ditched the incandescent bulbs and put led's in their tail lights, I'm thinkin about trying it, I work at a prominant north american cargo trailer manufacturing plant so led lighting is very accessible to me, Just wonderin if anybody done it!

Re: L.E.D. tail lights

ebay, they are like $10 per 50-100. you probably would want to get the 3mm ones and just make sure to do some research on the resisters needed... this site is a help http://www.ee.unb.ca/thesis98/ee4000aj/Resistor2.html oh and as a side note, the higher the mcd rating the brighter.... let me know how this project goes for you
