Show me your brake light & turn signal upgrades/alternatives

[AKPacker]

So the "50,000 hour lifetime" Grote composite LED tail lights and turn signals on my truck all have significant issues with burnt out diodes after ~330 hours of operation. Are these Grote lights really that unreliable, or can other issues cause these to burn our prematurely? What are some alternatives to the military composite tail lights and turn signals that you all have tried?

Go back to the incandescent lights. They are 12 volt and can purchase bulbs anywhere.
