i got the bulbs, will take night shot... they look really bright but since they reflect back to the reflector, not sure if the beam pattern is good.. all else fails, ill put this on my rx with reverse camera, it should be easier to use on that if its not bright enough..
my other option would be from vleds using smd, i like their bulbs, its usually very bright for me http://www.vleds.com/bulb-type/minia...79-1-pair.html

I agree with you they are bright, but do you find they light up the actual space behind the car very well? I find them to work less than the standard halogens in this regard. Meaning people will see my car backup from a mile away, as they are intense, but they don't actually brighten up the space very well behind the car.

I put these 68 SMD bulbs (http://www.ebay.com/itm/181071725417...S:3160&vxp=mtr) in today. They look great but I am getting the bulb out error... I won't be keeping them in. What are folks using that doesn't cause the error?

I love the crees.. pics are 800x600
Day shot + night shot. I only change driver side so we can compare, gonna test the other bulb in my rx450 and see if its better Day shot 50/50 Night shot 50/50 Driveway unlit Driveway lit 50/50 - notice the pattern, the halogen bulb is no where to be seen, if you look left of the gutter, thats where the halogen bulb is pointing 50/50 from passenger side 50/50 of what you see on the floor 50/50 of what you see from driver seat

So i'm not 100% satisfy with the cree, I found these. So these will fire off a few led into the reflector.. maybe ill get some extra lights out of it.

It seems like these would do what you want with the reflectors: http://www.vleds.com/shop-bulb-numbe...79-1-pair.html |

Off ebay, look for r5 t10 cree.. they are definitely better but I think by not using the reflector, it doesn't project the light in the area that you need

I gotta check these.. according to the website, its 500 lumens, a lot of the sites do not have real info.. I order from vled before, their bulbs are very bright. I'll need to measure and see if its longer or shorter than the ebay crees

Sorry to bring up an old thread but I was looking for some reverse leds and a lot of the links in this one are no longer available.
Does anyone know if these will be decent? I was trying to look for some that fire straight backwards like others said in here https://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-2x-50W-...ss!92109!US!-1 |

Those look pretty good. I think I have 30W and they're darn bright.
