First post hope its a good one. I need some LED experts help on building some tail lights for a 12v truck. I have read and looked at diagrams and even gone as far as asking Mr Radio Shack about this. I am as confused now as I was when I decided I wanted LED lights. My truck has all new wiring and has 3 wires going to each tail light bucket (running, brake, & blinker). I will not be using the backup light wire in the buckets, I will have these in the rear bumper. I have made a mock up drawing showing how I would like the LEDs laid out with dimensions. The little x marks each LED center (not knowing how close LEDs can be installed I used 3/8" center to center). So running and brake lights on top on one board and the blinker on a seperate board at the bottom (the bucket has 2 different cavities, the blinker area is where the back up lights went).

What I am asking is a idiot proof (crayon drawing) rendering showing how to do this. I would also ask that there be a purchase list as to what parts (brand, size, capacity, ect) to buy. Again crayon friendly. Just pretend you are helping a 5 year old put bling on his Radio Flyer wagon.

I am very hands on mechanicly savy so the building of will be no problem. Its the functionality part I have the trouble with. Please chime in with other better ideas, and again any and all help is really appretiated.

Thanks
