Default LED bulbs?

I just blacked out my tailights with VHT and I really need a brighter bulb in my lights. I'm thinking of making the switch to LED's. Anybody got the hook-up on where to get em? No idea if you can just plug em in like a regular bulb or if I need some kinda adapter or not...

They make an led bulb, just search for our bulb number followed by "amber led." Just make sure the one u buy has the same connector base. You will have to buy a resistor for the flashers to flash. The LEDs dont drain enough power for the flasher to recognize that there is a bulb and it wont flash as it thinks the bulb has blown. The resistor will have to be soldered between each flasher positive to its negative wires. I cant remember where I found the info at but it was its on site that specialized in LED auto technology
