LED plate lights - such a difference

[Adieu]

And hey, i do think they alone produce more light than the old backup lighting



$4 well spent

AND the rest fit front & midrow dome lights

I did the same. Cheap, easy to do and it makes such a big difference. I have replaced the OEM incandescent bulbs in all our new cars for the last 10+ years.

I did get better back up LEDs. Will post them soon.

What brand did you with? I tried a set from Amazon that had decent reviews, and they were CRAP. I swear light output was less!

Projector bulbs are bad for Expy backup lights imho....your lamps sit too high, doesn't point in right direction

Dome & plate (used 6 out of 10), seems like they'd also fit backup lights if needed but I got different ones for backups:


Amazon search:

JDM ASTAR 10pcs Super Bright 194 168 175 2825 T10 PX Chipsets LED Bulbs,Xenon White

$12.99 / 10 pieces

Tried posting a link but it's not working.


PS gonna need nylon prybar to get at interior lights, push fastener puller & new push fastener to do plate lights

Adieu, thanks for you "opinion". Moot point though since there should be no one behind me when I back up. Remember, there is a huge land out there beyond SoCal that is somewhat rural. Long driveways, no street lighting and a very big need for good back up lighting.

This forum is all about giving individual opinions, so thank you, but please realize there is a big difference between an opinion and a value judgment.

Most people upgrade backup lights for SAFETY...

Hence, projectors not pointing at where you're reversing....kinda, point-less?
