... even if you find LEDs a seller claims (even tries to show) the focal point will be consistent, you'll have heat issues to manage.

LED bulbs still generate heat and some A LOT depending on design! Even more will generated from the needed in-line resistors... for at least the indicator lights to prevent hyper flash all around. Each resistor needs to be securely mounted to metal and kept away from plastic as it can easily melt it. Bench test a 50W 6Ohm resistor w/ 2 LED bulb and tell me how long you can hold on? j/k please do NOT!

And depending on MY you may need to add them for brake / running lights too to avoid any CAN-BUS fault.

Good luck
