What's your guys option on these over stock bulbs? I have leds for my plate and want them for my reverse lights to match. The plate ones are JDM Allstars i think...., also anyone know where to get a puddle light cover (the light under the mirror) somehow lost one :E: would also like to change those to leds. If you guys know the best led for reverse lights and puddle lights let me know please!  07 LTZ btw :B:
 
Post a link to the lights you are looking at.
 
JDM ASTAR Extremely Bright Max 50W High Power 3056 3156 3057 3157 LED Bulbs ,Xenon White https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00MC6H0AI/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_M1GGyb9Y0YBNX
 
JDM is a major brand and seem to get good reviews, one thing you need to check is the length of the bulb and see if it will fit the housing.
 
These are the lights I bought for my reverse lights.

If you're wondering the LED bar I bought from amazon is https://www.amazon.com/Redline-Flexible-LED-Tailgate-Light/dp/B01INY7F1G/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1486277579&sr=8-3&keywords=opt7+led+tailgate+light

I bought the 60in and fits perfectly.

Super bright too!

Nice... Is that a fire and ice type bar? I would love to get one for my truck. I bought one for my girlfriends truck but the white is more for looks than any real light output.

 
The brand I bought is Redline. Extraordinarily bright, and very easy install. Took 10 minutes. It has held up great through car washes, freezing rain, -25 degrees (without windchill) and 80 degrees in the hot sun.

I've had it on for about 6 months now. It takes the guessing game out of backing up.

WOW that is impressive... I bought an ANZO bar from O'Reillys and it lasted all of 2 months before it filled with moisture and quit working... I may have to invest in the one you bought.

I really like it!  (y)
 
It is one of the best purchases I've made for my Av!

This is a picture of what the tail lights look like. Just in case you were wondering before you bought it. They also have light bar that isn't flexible.

These look just like the ones I have in my tail lights. VERY bright...

Very white light too.. Almost to a blue tint.

The only issue with the 2007+ is the contour of the plastic pads on the bumper compared to the 02-06 cladded. The lip on the bumper was flat across and it was easy to get a couple small screws and mount it permanently...

On the 2007+ the plastic lip is contoured and the bar does not lay flat all the way across. I had to drill a small hole and secure with zip ties and it still wasn't ideal. 
 
I have 2 Vision X 10w on sail panel and 2 15w noname under the bead

Tryed to post erlier, but pic was to big was the massage I got. Isn't it 2017!!?

And to clearfy, here in Sweden we need to have orange turn signals and we put them in the backup lights place, thats why I don't have any lights there in pic  :cry:
