Go to:

http://www.superbrightleds.com/tail-brake-turn.html

They have all the bulbs you'll need for every application on our 2004 to 2008 trucks.

Also, they sell a "low current draw" flasher (part number EP27L) that works with LED or filiment bulbs for our Ford 2004 to 2008 trucks. Using this flasher is easier (and safer) to use then load resisters; they can get hot, and require that they be mounted in an area that allows them to not make contact with wiring. I have this flasher installed in my 2005 STX.

Plus, if an LED bulb goes bad, and the only available bulb to replace it with is a filiment type for the time being, the load resister has to be removed in order for the filiment bulb to flash.

Here is the link to their LED flasher:

https://www.superbrightleds.com/specs/EP27L.html

Again, this flasher works for both LED and filiment bulbs. For awhile, I had filiment bulbs in the front, and LED in the rear. This flasher worked just fine. I now have LED in everything except the headlights of course; there I have HID's.
