I'd highly recommend LED's!! After quickly burning out several grommet mount sealed lights incandesant light assembly on my flatbed ($10 every time one goes out...), I replaced them with sealed LED's. Have not had a lamp failure since. I've been so pleased I'm now replacing the OEM marker and ID lights with LED's as they burn out.

I paid $18 apiece for the LED's tail lights at a local sporting goods(!) store. They are a direct, plug-in replacement.

Only downside is the LED's run so cool, in winter they tend to load up and become obscured with slush/snow when there's snow on the road. Unlike incandescent lights LEDs generate no heat to melt thru the buildup.
