Reverse light LED replacement
What are you guys using? and how do you like them so far? and the brightness? pics would be great.
I need to replace mine with a brighter output, because I cant see squat when reversing at night and my reverse cam is horrid without light.

LED's will not provide you a large output onto the road since the output drops off after a certain distance. However, when you are looking at them directly from behind, the output is quite high and has an intense light.
These are more for a aesthetic upgrade than anything really. If you used a larger bulb size like 7440, you would have more of an upgrade, but since most Lexus vehicles use a 921 sized bulb, it is a relatively small bulb and you're limited on how many LED's you can put on it.

JUNK horrible output. I have a pair from JLC they are crap they look great in the picture because the exposure to the camera is set up a way to make it look awesome. I still have the pair in my glove box if you want to buy them for 20 bucks shipped!!! 921

I'm going to say the opposite as others on this thread. Ever since I changed my reverse lights to CREE's off eBay, I back up in the dark like a maniac now that I see everything behind me. Especially with the nice while color, it always lights up the car behind me the grille, headlights, and emblem since it's most of the time chrome.
Here's mine.

I put cree projector bulbs in for my reverse and what I like about them is that I can actually see out of my rearview camera at night now. It is an aesthetic upgrade but I find it functional as well.
