I know, I know….use the search function! I just wasted about 2 hrs of my life doing that and I didn’t really get my question answered. Maybe I missed in the vast sea of “LED reverse light and license plate light” threads out there!

I have a 2014 Sport (projectors headlights and LED tails) so that means I use the 7440 bulb and not the 921 bulb. I’ve already had many fights with the damn canbus system and don’t want anymore….I keep losing them. I’m going to go with the superbrightled.com 194s for the license plate. What I need help with is the reverse lights. It seems like the threads out there just die out with questions unanswered. I want brighter than OEM incandescent…in other words, I’m not going for just looks. I think I narrowed it down to a bulb but was hoping that someone that has them could let me know if they cause the “bulb out” message on the dash screen. They are from Retro Solutions and below is the link. I really appreciate the help!

I just got mine from enlight auto a few weeks back. As long as the bulb is inserted properly and working you will not get light out. Check them out. I have 2015 and no issues.

Yeah, I read a lot where those were mentioned, but they aren't supposedly as bright as the Retro Solutions LED 7440. Plus, when on the Enlight site, the price goes from $18 for the 921 bulb to $45 for the 7440 bulb!! Why?? :jawdrop:
