My granddesign has regular taillights, if I Change them to led is it just a plug and play or did I need to do some thing else thinking of going with Bragman tail lights

Because I can for one and because the less of an amp load on the electrical system, the less parasitic power loss there is and three, I like them.
The amp draw is way down on the list. Tail lights are generally only in operation when the truck is running and charging the battery.
Better reasons:
- They tend to be much brighter than you standard incandescent bulbs.
- And the big one: Incandescent bulbs take about 0.5 seconds to illuminate once power is applied to the circuit (It takes the filament that long to heat up until it creates visible light). LED takes about 1/10th as long to start producing light. That's almost an extra 1/2 second for following vehicles to react to your brake lights. That can be the difference in an accident or not (or between a serious crash and a fender bender).
