2011 Clubman tail lights on 2008?

I was wondering if anybody had looked into swapping their tail lights for the new LED ones on the 2011's? I like the look of the new lights, and on first glance it looks like they're bolt-on replacements. I know there may be voltage differences with the LED lights, and I'm wondering if there's any other reason why this wouldn't work.

Anybody tried this yet??

It was posted by MikeytheMini, a vendor in the UK (newministuff.com). I'm sure he will send you details if you purchase taillights from him. Actually if you want balanced reverse lights as shown, he would be a good source to obtain the UK left taillight with a reverse light.
