Someone put a picture of their car up, and had blue LED bulbs in their reverse lights....I was wondering if they made LED bulbs that fit where the stock lights go, or if you had to custom do it....If they do make the bulbs where can I get them and for how much, and if not, how hard is it to custom do?

They fit right in. I got my PIAAs from an import shop, but I'm sure you can get them at pepboys. My 0.02 cents :)
