Yes, the center cluster is LED, reverse is regular bulb, and there is a 194 bulb on the side. Just swap LED bulbs for them.
Check out my install as I have comparison pics of stock, LED etc.....

Re: Aftermarket Taillights
I got the regular red LED lights off of ebay for mine. I had water damaged stockers with a light coat of nightshade to try and hide it. I put the red LED 194 bulbs in the corners too. They don't look all ricey and ****ty like most of the ebay lights. I wanted something stock looking.

Re: Aftermarket Taillights
I have the tinted red LED tails off ebay, same as Matt.

They really don't look that dark in person, I apparently only have cloudy/overcast pictures.
Re: Aftermarket Taillights
Our stage 2 reverse lights use 7.5 watt CREE style high-powered LEDs
We have Stage 3's coming soon that are 50 watt!

Really? I see lots. http://www.ebay.com/bhp/grand-prix-led-tail-lights
Re: Aftermarket Taillights
Those didn't appear as dark as Danielle's. Maybe it's the lighting for the photo in the ad. I saw those and I also saw the description, but I wasn't convinced they were the darker ones.
I've seen someone post that these have been on their car for +3 years with no leaks. Is that the longest time frame anyone can give witness to? My OEM ones went 13 years before leaking, although, I think they failed prematurely due to a poor design of some sort.

I find that a lot of ads use generic pictures. Focus on the description, "LED SMOKE" and you will be good to go.

I just finished year two with no leaks, and I live on the Wet Coast.

Thanks for the information. I wondered if it was a generic ad photo, too.
I did also notice what she typed about the overcast photos, Below Average Joe. Just figured I'd go to the source and ask her, directly. Thanks, though.
Re: Aftermarket Taillights
Trying to be of some service. I'd go with the smoked if it were me. They look better then the bright red ones...unless your car is bright Red.
