Default Led lights

I saw people talking about LED bulbs for tinted tail lights. I've got a 93 and I tinted my lights and would like to throw LEDs. If anyone can give me an idea where and what is best thanks

I have done 3 trucks pre 96 and all needed a relay. My truck in [articular was a pain. It required a relay and an LED flasher to replace the factory flasher. The lights worked in just dropping them in but they didnt go in sequence with the blinkers and most of the time wouldnt blink

your flasher relay thats on your fuse panel and a wire in relay. You could get away with wiring in some resistors from superbrightleds.com and wouldnt need to do the wire in relay. But the flasher is a must.
