it is going to be very hard to get cost in line on even on a group buy. The
best thing to do is get a bunch of third brake light bars from the junk yard
and use the high brightness leds off of these. Most red Leds have a view
angle of only 15 degrees or so. The new white Leds have a view angle of 135
degrees but are $2 each.  You can bust out the glass of the old 1157 bulb
and group 3 leds for 
running and 3 for brake light. The current limiting resistors control the
brightness
