I'm looking to get new puddle and reverse lights for my 08 IS350...Does anyone know what would be the brightest white 5000k or 6000k LED bulbs (from VLEDs) that I could put in both? I have seen a few on the sight but I fear that some of the bigger ones might not fit in the light housing.
Thanks

Cree led reverse lights are the brightest.

Cree seems good. They are more of a projection type so it would be likable who likes the projection look.

For me, I did not want cree so I went with JLC 's SMD(s) to have more of a even light distribution throughout the housing.

For reverse, you can go with the T10 9-SMD and the mirror, T10 5-SMD.

I agree, they are the brightest. But I was not happy with them, took them off the same day. With these when you reverse it looks more like a mini flashlight in your tail light.. did not illuminate enough in my opinion.

nice carrrr

If you want the light to projector bright/far enough for you to see the road at night, CREE is the only way to go. But If you just want the reflector housing to be brighter to let other people see it, you can just get the 9-SMD LED, 13-SMD LED or higher. BUT make sure they will fit into your housing before you buy them!!!

Yeh!! my car!!

I recommended the 9-SMD because the 9-SMD's length because is about the same at the stock bulbs length. The 13-SMD I am not so sure if it will fit since it is slightly longer.

Yeah I have always heard that Cree led reverse lights are the brightest.

Here's my JLC CREE LED.

I haven't seen the CREE/JLC reverse lights in person, but by most accounts they seem to be the brightest lights available for that application.

For the puddle lights, I think V-LED high powered flanks hold the title for being the brightest: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...de-w-pics.html

I love my vled flanks, they're a little long for the housing but worked

Which LEDs are best for actual light output vs stock bulbs while backing up in the dark?

We also sell the puddle lights for $15 a pair

CREE LED is the brightest if you want to have the best output of the light!
