I'm putting 04-05 oem styled led taillights in my 01 coupe and besides doing a little wire splicing and connecting, a different sized backup bulb seems like it would be the only hiccup in the taillight swap. (the lights came with the blinker bulbs and the led brake lights)

just get 04-05 turn signal sockets. no wire splicing required.

yes the reverse bulb and socket are the same.

u'll have a extra socket left over from the side marker light.
