2nd Generation 88 camry- Tail lights

Hello and welcome to the beginning of my long list of problems.

I have a hole in my left rear tail light and would like to change it out. thats the easy part. BUT i don't want to keep my tails stock any more.

Does anyone have a suggestion on any FAIRLY simple (or insanely hard) swaps?
Does anyone have tips on LED mods?
Does anyone have any completely random things to say?
I WANT THEM ALL!

ES250 lights are not at all a direct fit.

I guess what i mean when i say swap is more of a retrofit. a similar length/ height light that a little body work could make work.
