Thanks guys. No, not a kit. I bought those LEDs separately at Tractor Supply. Turned out, they are identical to the ones in the grille lights. I just spliced them together by soldering and using liquid electrical tape, drilled 3/4" holes, and spliced them into the license plate lights.
Took longer to find a couple drill bits, than it did to make up and install. I was in kinda of rush, so I didn't do anything to protect the bare metal from rust, but that will be taken care of shortly.
Here's a link to the LEDs,

If you have a Scientific Trailer around you, they have them as well, and I'm sure some of the Tractor Supply type stores would too.

On edit; Was at Auto Zone today, they have the same lights, for $5 I think it was. Mine came in a plastic bag, AZ's were in a blister type package. LOL

Cool, we have a Tractor Supply 3 miles from my work. I will check it out. I was actually referring to your grill lights. I was looking at my FX2 grill and not sure its possible because of how the support piece goes right down the middle. That would make it hard to space 3 lights evenly.

I guess I misunderstood your question. I could be wrong, but I thought the only difference in your grille and mine, was mine is that godawful chrome.
Here is a link to Stage 3,

You could call and ask them, but in the photos, you can see a grille like yours. I think, between the lower edge of the grille surround, and the top bar, it's wide open.

Oooppps, I just saw you have an '07!! Well, I guess our grilles are different, these lights are for '09 and up. But, I wonder if it would hurt anything if you were to cut that top support out? Something to think about at least. If you need some measurements, let me know, maybe it could still work.
