LED Brake Lights

I want to upgrade my third brake light on my 04 Ranger but the site that I thinking about getting it from only has F150 (1997-2003), F150 (2004-2008), and F250 (1999-2003) third brake lights. Are any of these compatible with my 04 Ranger?

I am debating getting these rear brake lights: http://www.protuninglab.com/alt-yd-fr98-led-c.html

I am hoping that the F250 (1999-2003) third brake lights would work because I would love to get these, http://www.protuninglab.com/bl-f25099-c.html I think they would look pretty good together.

I was also wondering if I should get a LED Tailgate Light Bar to go with it all, just I'm not sure how I would install it or how to mount it. If somebody has a guide that would be great.

Thank you!

My current brake lights, just stock 04s. As you can see, I really need to replace the third brake light, it was leaking and that was how the person I bought it from fixed it. So if I was going to upgrade I thought I should just get LEDs, but if I am doing that I need to upgrade all of it.

Have any links for any? I want to keep this around $150. They must be LEDs too. Do you know anything about the third brake light though? I want one of buggman's because I know that it is a going to be a great product, but I haven't heard back from him. I just want the two brake lights to match and be bright I don't care too much what they look like. :) lol

You can get the 06 tails for around $60 and then get LED bulbs for them for fairly cheap or I am sure a member here (either JP7 or buggman) could mod some to make them LED for a price. They both do great work.

I am talking to buggman right now about getting me a third brake light and a dome light. I know JP7 did some really good stuff with rear brake lights too, so I will ask them about the brake lights too, I can give them free range to make it awesome and I will pay for it. :)
