Has anyone replaced their tail light bulbs with all LEDs? If so, how do they look and what kind of led did you use? I would like to retrofit the 2013 style lights but don't want to have to buy a new trunk lid.

Have you priced out the 2013 tail lights anyways. They are pricey just fyi.

I think Geswek did LEDs, but his is a 2013.  Not sure if bpd did his also, he has a 2010.  Check the How To section.
2007 Ford Edge SEL, Powerstop F/R Brake Kit, TXT LED 6000K Lo & Hi Beams, W16W LED Reverse Bulbs, 3BSpec 2.5w Map Lights, 5W Cree rear dome lights, 5W Cree cargo light, DTBL LED Taillights

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Yea I priced it. It would probably be around $3k all together with a trunk lid

Still would have to get it painted and put the reverse cam in lol. Too much for some tail lights. Probably just gonna throw in. Some led bulbs to replace the regular ones

I'm mulling replacing all he lights, except for the head light HID's, with LED lights. I found a couple sights and plan on getting around to making some calls. I'll post updates if I end up doing any or all lights.

I got this kit and they sucked ..first they sent me a few wrong bulbs and that was rectified but after pulling out all the factory bulbs and comparing them to the LEDs they sent me .....most were wrong  :-  The only bulbs I used were the plate bulbs
