Make RadioButton appear as ToggleButton

Question

Hello,
I have spent much time in this issue, but couldn't find a proper solution.
I have a panel with togglebuttons on it. These togglebuttons are listitems of different Lists and can't be grouped under one parent.
What I need now is that all the togglebuttons are pressed exclusively, just same behavior like radiobuttons. But as grouping the togglebuttons under the same parent is not an option, it doesn't work.
The only way i can think of now is to use radiobuttons instead of togglebuttons and all radiobuttons have the same groupname. But the problem is now to change the radiobuttons control template to make them appear as togglebuttons.
Do you know whether there is an example of a template which makes a radiobutton appear as a togglebutton?
Or maybe you have another solution?
Thank you very much

This also makes a perfect use for extending a style using BasedOn attribute:
Code Snippet
// Create a RadioButton style baed on the ToggleButton style
<Style x:Key="toggleStyle" BasedOn="{StaticResource {x:Type ToggleButton}}"
                            TargetType="{x:Type RadioButton}">
 <Style.Triggers>
   <Trigger Property="IsChecked" Value="true">
      <Setter Property="Background" Value="Red"/>
   </Trigger>
 </Style.Triggers>
</Style>
Now you can create radio buttons that look just like toggle buttons. And according to the style above, their background color will change to Red when checked:
Code Snippet
<RadioButton Content="My Radion Button" Click="Toggle_Handler" Width="300"
                    Style="{StaticResource toggleStyle}"></RadioButton>
