Aftermarket Tail Lights Discussion - JDM Depos

I have a horizon blue Jazz/Fit and debating what tail lights to get for it. I'm in New Zealand so currently only looking at eBay. Obviously the smoke won't look great with the light blue colour so wanting to go with the JDM Depos. My main problem is the seller won't ship the JDM Depos to NZ (though for some reason Oz is okay?) so I have to go through the drama of sending them to my parents in FL blah blah hassle headache extra costs etc.
I'm not exactly sure if the bottom stop light on the JDM Depos actually have a standard bulb at the bottom. If you look at the location of the stop light connection it's not flush with the back of the bottom light location so impossible to use a standard bulb there.
Does anyone have the JDM Depos that can verify the type of bulb(s) used at the bottom?
If anyone knows of any other LED tail lights please let me know!
Oh, I did see these in clear and smoke and will pass, thanks.

Cheers!

Ah, and of course I'll be changing out my OEM JDM Base model tail lights so if you want some, help me out as they'll be for sale as soon as I have the RS style sorted!

Already tried eBay, the only seller "neondials" reckons NZ is in Asia and therefore not able to ship to me. I've tried to explain it to them, but they refuse to even look at a World Map.
I've just asked one of the FF members in Hong Kong to check prices, but if you or anyone can help with sourcing them direct from Taiwan I'd appreciate it.

I'd REALLY appreciate some opinions on the Depos. At $120 delivered (for US buyers) I'm surprised they're not all over the place...

Have have the smoked JDM depots and the turn signal/backup lights are still bulbs, but the running lights/brake lights are LEDs.
