Yes, I've tried the cheaper LED alternatives from Matrix and the like, they SUCK! Can't see em during the daytime at all. The only one's I would try are those spiderlights or these bulbs from another LED company that has clusters of LED's that face backwards so it uses the reflectors, but those aren't cheap either.
Luckily I already have an 05 with the standard LED tails now..

I done the all led thing, but those spiderlite things look pretty hot!

I think the 4" one would fit.

Yep, in addition to causing the hyperblinking, it's just too dim to see during the day and the beam is not wide enough to make use of the existing reflector. I did change the sidemarker bulbs to amber LEDs since I have the smoked sidemarkers.

The LEDs in just the sidemarkers does not cause the hyperblinking problem either.. but I did still notice that it's difficult to see when it's blinking from certain angles.
