Not sure about the strip blinkers but stay away from the replacement bulb leds, don't like getting shaked around. Mine lasted a couple of weeks with most of the leds dead when I tossed them (gone back to the good old plain jane bulbs).

Correct me if I am wrong but @ $50 each you will need 6 (blinker x2, stop x2 & tail x2) that adds up to $300 and you still need a reverse light.
if you can get a combo brake/tail it will be better.

If you use the square ones from here,

they fit perfectly in a standard Zook rear bar
