Wink Reverse Light Bulbs??

What are you guys using for a brighter bulb in your reverse lights?

I have a '99 that I have put '08 tail lights in and need brighter reverse lights.

Thanks!

I would stay away from any of the halogen options or any lights the would increase amperage or heat as i have seen the light actual melt the lens even the wires, if your just gonna change the bulb id look at the LED options but even then you will be limited on additional light.

Here is a link to where you find the bulbs.

If you need a lot of extra light i would suggest something like this, a recessed powerful led, i have these on all my work trucks and all my guys have had nothing but good things to say.

Here is a link you can find the recessed leds. Same place they seem to have a lot of good deals.

Hope this helps
