    Get the one thingys that i always forget the name of, they plug in where the normal bulb does and spread out like a squid once inside. Someone will remember what they are. Spyderlite or something.

    I considered the spiderlites (search here). Conclusion is no good.

    Remember that the polarity is reversed on the connectors so if you go any buy an off the shelf LED bulb for the turn signals and what not, they wont work... not without some rewiring.

    There are LED tail lights, but it's just for the brake function. The turn signal is still an incandecent (search eBay).

    Uh ... if the polarity is wrong, reverse the leads; too easy. And these actually look kind of neat. Since they'd be going into stock lenses, the prisming on the glass would diffuse the starburst pattern pretty nicely, I'd think. Why did you decide you didn't like these?
