Reverse Lights

[Rmtt]

So I guess I'm getting old as my reverse lights don't illuminate as well as I think they should....I do have legal tint 35%....but for those of you that have switched, what did you go with that you liked?

I just installed my new Blacklines taillights today, but I assume it uses the same bulb as my OEM tails did. I will see tomorrow if there is any difference, but I'm figuring there won't be.

I would just like to be able to see things around me a little better....and not blind anyone that may be behind me when in a parking lot at night or something along those lines.

Thanks!

for 921 type bulbs, Sylvania suggests their "SYLVANIA 921 ZEVO LED Mini Bulb" … I couldn't find lumen, operating temperature, or beam pattern info on any of their backup bulb options. Package does state "for off road use only" so if lots more light is what you're looking for, that might be considered a promising sign... although it could as easily be taken as a warning it's gonna melt the plastic housing.

SuperbrightLEDs.com has some that report 170 lumens, but their max operating temperature of 185f suggest they might run a bit hot:

Same SuperbrightLEDs.com site specs as their "stock" replacement a bulb with 65-85 lumens, depending on color temperature:
