    If I want to upgrade my tail lights from the stock red single circle light to the LEDs will I be able to to do or will it require another harness specifically for the LED?

    I think they are interchangeable. Not sure though. Lots of guys in 05-08 trucks are using the 09+ LED tails.

    Why not get some used OEMs for the newer trucks at a salvage yard or online?
