today I am upgrading the Brake, Turn Signal and Reverse lights to LED's. 3X brighter and significantly less draw on the battery.
I ordered a harness for the headlights...hope to upgrade them later this week.

Where did you get LED bulbs for this? I currently have LED tail light assemblies installed, but half the LED's went out on one side, so I'm putting the old style assembly back in so I can change the bulbs when they go out. I would much prefer LED bulbs though.

Amazon...i'll post links shortly
 
@Coolerman sells a plug and play flasher that works with LEDs. No cutting or splicing of harness! Worked great I recently installed, had a nice clicking sound.

Btw I also swapped all my lights to LEDs and got them at superbrightleds.com. Their LED finder was incorrect on the rear turn signal so I had to return and they shipped the correct ones no problems.

X2 superbrightled: Had good experience with their customer service... couple of returns
 
The LED's I used are Phillips...I would avoid cheap LED's
I also ordered a Toyota turn signal flasher, part number 81980-12H04 to replace my existing one...that arrives tomorrow and I can replace the turn signal lamps
 
+1 on SuperBrightLEDS.com. I installed led's for the turn signals, side markers, license plate lamps and instrument lights. I also bought two of their flashers which have worked perfectly. If I need more LED's I will order from them in a minute.

I also ordered this kit to upgrade the turn signals so they are visible from the side:
