Yes, but not sure if you would put them on your car, there's some on ebay I believe.

LED bulb only will throw error unless you add resistors.

Yup, they have them. I think you use the same one for front corners as rear.. but there are so many bulbs back there, you'd have to put in bunch of resistors..

Seems kinda expensive for little gain on look besides brighter when breaking...I guess that's just me though.
