Well, You could just wire in a bulb, parallel to the LED array... But if the front signals are still incandescent, the signals will flash. Possibly just real fast, like when the rear bulb is burnt out. Heck, get real fancy and install the amber side marker lights from the front quarters of a cabriolet on the side of the van right below the red sidemarkers, and with a bulb in it, use it as the higher amp load parallel to the tail light turn signal. (Upon finding that Cabriolet being parted out, let me know. I might need bits).
