Jesus those are going to bright and look mighty sexy!
Someone on LS1Tech did there entire brakes like that as well. Its becoming very popular, and from my understanding, LED's draw less power then conventional bulbs.

I already have the third bake light LED I got from custom-leds.com.
They only make conversions for 1st and 2ng gen Camaro's now. It will probably be a while before they come out with 3rd and 4th gen conversions. I could probably make and sell these but it wouldn't be cheap. I would have to charge atleast 190 for set and I dont know if anyone would be willing to lay out that kind of money to do it.

I have had a set of these for my 3rd brake lite for a couple of years now. Got them off of ebay for about $30.00. The guy can make up quite a few different letter/number combos, such as GTA/ WS6/ 305/ 350/ 383/ L98 etc. On the Camaros he can make IROC/ Bowtie Emblem etc. He can do the 1991-1992 Firebirds, and the 1987-1992 Camaro. His website is WWW.CUSTOM-LEDS.COM If you go to my FQuick Garage, and click on my pictures, you can get a good close-up of the lite.

Yeah thats were I got my third brake light as well. It would have been a lot easier if that guy made the taillights as well but oh well, I just did it my self. Im still considering selling the ones I made. I would probably have to get around 20 orders to sell them at a decent price.

Im in contact with Spaghetti Engineering Enterprises to posibly make these LED taillights and since they are right here in West Berlin, NJ maybe the members from here that are interested can send emails to them saying that you would like them to produce them.

I never had a problem wiht anyhting off of eBay. and that would be a nice side business, making LED's for 3rd gens, sounds like a good idea.

Spaghetti Engineering said they will be producing a kit for third gen f-bodys. It will be a kit to insert into the factory tail light housings.
