Wow! Just installed those bulb last night and they are perfect. They put enough light that I don't plan on installing the pods.

I've tried those for fun and they were about the same as the stock one but bluish.

Actually I've purchase those initially, but then realized when I got them that I screwed up since those are for the LED taillight and don't fit... :crazy:


Is it the same bulb for the cargo light ?

Oh ok..

Brands like vleds, superbright leds have pretty reliable bulbs.

The brightness varies...there's so many to choose from.
Do u think Getting reverse lights from supper bright led will cause errors?

I saw those but amazon says they didn't fit a 2016 so I chose not to get them. Are they really bright?

Previously the backup cam display was pretty dark when not in a place with streetlamps. Now I can see the display just fine even when its pitch black outside.

I've got the JDM's off Amazon mounted in the reverse sockets and they did throw a code on my '13. I had previously been using some H3 bulbs that were tapped into the reverse wires (not using the socket). To fix the thrown code, I drilled a hole the same size as the existing hole in the reverse housing and have both JDM and H3 bulbs mounted side by side in the reverse housing with no codes and awesome light output. I've also attached a pic of the JDM's mounted in the cargo lights. e68035524be5108de973630e7e8b32d5.jpg25b02aacd6638800db4adab66073cffd.jpg

Found Sylvania Zenos

Used Sylvania 921 Zenos across the back. Used white in the cargo & backups & red in the cyclops brake light. No codes & they look great with LED tail lights. The license I didn't go with high outputs, just reg replacements. Found all the LED bulbs at AutoZone. Also got $5 rebate per pair. The truck is now all LED except the headlights. We have to recover from large outlays for other issues.

I have a 2016 big horn and I put led from supper bright led in my reverse lights and I'm getting error codes. I replaced all my interior and third break lights with their lights and have had no problems. Anyone have any suggestions?

Bringing an old threat bad to life. What reverse led bulbs do you guys use that dont throw codes? I bought a pair of reverse led lights on amazon. They look nice but they are showing the bulb out code. Its not the end of the world but it is slightly annoying.

Anyways I am looking for 921 6k Leds that dont throw a code... Thanks!!

I use Cutequeen in all of the accessory lights. They are cheap and I've had zero issues with them installed for nearly two years now. Some folks spend way to much money on these bulbs. I did my truck, my wife's car, and my father in law's truck for under $50 (that's every bulb probably 30 bulbs total)
