Ordered a bunch of LEDS from SuperBrightLEDs.com. Still need to do the interior bulbs but added LEDs to the Brake Lights, Reverse Lights and Middle Brake Light last night.
Didn't think to take pics but the tail lights were SUPER easy. Two Torx head screws and pull straight back.
The passenger brake light plug showed some signs of excess heat. Really glad to get those hot bulbs out of there.
The Middle Brake Light was a bit trickier. This site had some great info about how to remove/replace the bulbs: https://www.carcarekiosk.com/video/...tinum_3.5L_V6_Turbo/lights/center_brake_light
You're supposed to be able to remove the black housing from the lens assembly and plug and play. (See below)

I was not so lucky. These bulbs also showed signs of excess heat and were fused to the bracket on the lens assembly. Pulling them apart broke some bulbs and I had to further disassemble the assembly to remove the broken bulbs from the lens.
Additionally, the LED bulbs were too wide to be installed from underneath the reflector (as shown in the video). However, I was able to reassemble the silver and black pieces, install the bulbs from the top of the reflector and put it all together.
Next is the interior lights, then puddle lights, and finally headlights.
Not sure I'd recommend replacing the 3rd brake light unless you're fairly handy. I thought for sure I would be ordering a new light.
BUT, replacing the reverse and brake lights is SUPER easy and well worth the money and time spent. IMO
