Can the rear lights be LEDs?

I'm just wondering.... I dunno anything about that sort of stuff...
So would replacing the rear stop lights so that they're LED-based be feasible? The G35 has them but I think they look cheap as hell on that car. I’m talking about making it look like the Caddys witout having to mess around with the reflectors and stuff.

sure they CAN be LEDS or anything you want... I doubt that it would work well though because our lamps are not designed for LED output where the Caddys is, so it would probably come off looking dim and cheap on our CL's IMO...

Here we go, I found replacements for the tail/stop bulbs:

They also have them fro turn signals, etc.

Do you think the LED stop/tail lights would make a difference, or would you just stick with the rear turn signals? If you put LED's in your rear turn signals, wouldn't you pretty much need to put LED's in your front signals as well?


PS..I already have the 4LED amber bulbs in my driving lights and they look pretty cool.
