has anyone replaced their back-up lights (reverse lights)?

i am looking at these...

you guys think i will get more light out of them than the factory bulb?

 

yeah i would like to know that too...i have changed every bulb in the car except for the headlight..and i was wondering about the backup bulb to make it brighter. i remeber my friend had a backup bulb so bright that you couldnt look at it directly..that would be sweet. let me know what you come up wiht. thanks

 

I have reverse lights from VLEDs (high power white) on my '04 coupe, and they're not as bright as stock... they look awesome, but they barely illuminate what is behind me.

 

can you be more specific as to what type you have? are they one LEDs...two LEDs...six LEDs....etc.

the ones i am looking at have 13 of the new SMT LEDs.

i am buying them more for added light than looks. & i don't want to spend $25 to have a dimmer..."prettier" light

 

I have these:

They have 9 LEDs

 

are those the actual ones for our car,

Oh and yeah those are the ones for the '04's... didn't see your sig at first (921 bulb)

 

ok thanks, what would be the ones for the fog on 06 lights

 

I think those are either D2R or D2S... google sylvania bulb guide and then see what it says for '06

 

ok appreciate it

 

ok...so yours has 9 of the regular LEDs & is not as bright as the factory bulb. I wonder if the one I am looking at would be brighter. it has 13 (4 more) of the SMT LEDs.

how much brighter are the SMT LEDs than regular LEDs?

 

SMTs are supposedly brighter, but I personally haven't seen them.

Also, I think the reason the reverse lights are so bad in my coupe owes to the design of the bulb housing - the light points straight up and is only seen out of the back by virtue of a reflector inside the assembly.

 

ok now back to the 07+ sedans???

 

i emailed V-LEDs and asked them how much brighter (more visible light) the one i was looking at buying makes compared to the one BlueDevilBAMF has. I will be sure to post whatever they say.

if they say it is a significant difference...i may give them a shot. considering the projection of light on the sedan may be better than on the coupe.

what do you guys think?
