I was a Guinea pig for these lights...absolutely love the final result. You may want to read through the entire thread. The final post has a link to the website.

I used both the infused LED lenses and also LED bulbs. The original brake lights are now LED infused lenses and I added a red LED bulb to the backup lights with a jumper from the brake light switch to the backup light connector at the fire wall. I now have 4 brake lights but still appears to be stock 66 with backup lights.
Much brighter and safer.

I Prefer the Bulb Type
After much research I settled on the replacement bulb LEDs. They have come a long way and effectively render the multi LED replacement lenses obsolete. They are brighter and easier to install, same as replacing a bulb. As with any LEDs you will either need a parallel resistor or a powered solid-state flasher for the turn signals to work correctly.
Hear a link the post on my front/rear LED setup.

If you just change the REAR lights to LED, and leave the fronts incandescent, you won't have the flasher problem.
