Hi everyone:

 

Has anyone just replaced the stock bulbs with led bulbs in the tail lights?  I know you can get the can-bus versions now.

Thinking about this more for longevity than brightness.

Thanks!

Yes, it can be done, but you need to pay attention to potential CAN Bus errors, and you will also need to upgrade to an LED compatible flasher to stop "hyper flash" rates from the turn signals.

Thanks.  How would I find an LED compatible flasher?  Can I assume the "flasher: is a relay that plugs into the fuse box?

Relay number 3 (third from the left - top row).

Amazon (amongst others) sells them.
