Or, since those look like stock, just save money and install one of these:

Don't have them on my JK. But Pilot makes some good lights. Use to run them on my Kenworth.

Those cost too much. The LEDS have come down so much in price It almost stupid to pay that much for led tail lights. I say keep your orignal housings and install some nice V-Led bulbs. I did and they look awesome.

Not to mention if one of the LEDs go out on that kit your stick with buying a new set to fix the issue. (Unless you know electronics and know how to replace them) It's easier to find the replacement LED bulbs from V-Leds...

I've had my eye on these too but need to see more pics of them installed and lit up as both parking and brake lights and both. A video would be perfect. Wonder if they'd fit under the Jeep Tail Light Guards...

Those are extremely overpriced. I just made my own LED lights from 4" round trailer lights for my 'Cuda. Cost me $50, similar "plug n play" kit was $180...No way there is $270 worth of anything there. Be easy enough to tweak the stock lights to do the same thing..
