Word of warning.
Do not fall for the Ebay myths of canbus free LED lights.
How they work is a resistor in parallel with the LED. This resistor gets rather hot when the light is switched on. Often it is hot enough to melt the solder and the resistor falls of, the LED still works but you then have an error light on the display. Sometimes (happened to me) hot enough that the heat is conducted back along the supply wires and the insulation melts filling the car with an obnoxious smell, the wires can short blowing a fuse if you are lucky.
Trups will sell individual LEDs, but the best way to go is to use his kits. They are little packets, labelled and ready to fit. He gives you a warranty but I doubt that you will need that. I have replaced most of my lights with his LEDs without problem for over a year.
The only ones that I have not replaced are my reversing and rear fog lights.
