Need Help with Tail light LED size and other ?'s

Im sure this has been talked about in other threads, but i have searched and searched and still cant seem to find what im looking for. I am having trouble finding the LED tail lights i need and the size of the bulb as well. I need to replace both my Reverse lights and brake lights with Bright LED's due to recently getting a ticket for having my tail lights too dark. I also heard others who changed from stock to LED say that they had to change a timing fuse?? im not sure if i need that, but thats why im asking for your help. if anyone could help me id appreciate it greatly.

thanks

Rida

Will need an electronic flasher so the lights dont blink super fast. The part number is EP-27 at Napa auto parts. The bulbs are linked to your other post.

If yo tail light are darker than stock this will be even harder to fix. I have yet to see an "off-the-shelf" LED replacement bulb from an online retail or parts store that puts out the same, if not more light than a stock incandescent bulb. You will either need to go to aftermarket tails all together, not bulbs, or do a retrofit of LEDs yourself.
