It has been covered.
Any Dealer local or online, used on ebay, or black market.
The lights are a bolt in, however you need 2 new sockets for the bulbs & the 2 extra bulbs.

I'm guessing like the 02-03 TL, they changed the harness and the bulbs required for the tail lights, meaning your old ones would fit, they just wont stay in place.

Its a different type of bulb.

Where on the '01's the turn signal would be clear, to show up red....the 03's are amber to show up orange. Dont know the size of the bulb. Search and ye shall find.
