What is a rear running light? Brake lights? Reverse lights?

There is a turn signal bulb, stop light bulb, and a reverse light bulb and that is it. No LED. I believe what you are talking about is reflective light tricks in the housing itself.

Of course there are. Yes, they are two LEDs per side.
Unfortunately, they are not replaceable (at least nobody here ever said anything about being able to fix them if they stop working). You'd have to replace the light assembly to fix the problem.

LED's? I have never seen any.....but to each their own i suppose....i would also guess they are not replaceable...and being LED"s they should never "burn out" at least not for about 100 years......

it's the little lights on the two horizontal bars running from the big circular red light around to the side

if you can manage to open the light assembly w/o breaking, you can probably replace them yourself. how are they powered anyway?

go turn your lights on and look on the outside of the two strake things. even without the lights on you can see the difference in the strake from where its supposed to be.
