is there a kit to convert round tail lights to rectangular?

Thanks guys for all the helpful comments

So sort of a semi advanced electrical project. The rectangular lights are not very bright? The round ones I have are brighter?

The round taillights are brighter. I upgraded to LED lights from Superbrightleds.com for my round taillights and they are, well, super bright. I left the standard 1157 incandescent bulbs in the front and my old-style relay still works just fine. If you put LEDs up front as well, you probably will need to get a new relay designed to work with LEDs.

If you do upgrade to LEDs, be sure to get red.

The LED rectangular lights are bright, they are just small and low. I thought I read somewhere the original Cobras changed to the round due to DOT regulations at the time. I have to believe the round are a lot easier to see especially if the guy behind you is in a truck or SUV.
