drl and reverse LEDs

[rippinitup]

whats up guys. im looking for a set of LEDs to run in the drl and reverse lights. i want something bright as possible. i remember someone posting an ebay link to a pair but i cant find it. if someone can lead me in the right direction itll be appreciated.

im also looking for the LED brake lights that most of the members run. the smoked ones. im ready to order them so if someone can link me to those as well. thanks!!
actually i cant decide whether to get the clear or smoked ones. what do you guys think? thanks!

Here's a link to the tail lights. But work for liftgate only, not barn doors.-

I have reverse bulbs like these-

For drls I have similar ones like above but they are cone shaped to reflect off the housing better but couldn't find them on ebay. There are brighter cree led drls on ebay for around $40 but heard they burn out pretty quick. There are other better quality cree leds from superbright and other sellers but cost a pretty penny. Around $80 for a pair.

I just got these last week for both, I love the look. They might be cheap but work good.

Make sure you get LED tails with resistors built in. I use the Sonar brand.
Nice truck, how you liking those 20's? I'm thinking of getting them.

are they actually bright for reverse? because i back out of a dark driveway all the time and actually need them to be bright, not just for looks.

Thank you very much, it has turned into my new woman, lol. Yours is very clean and nice as well. When I got my tail lights I had to get resistors cause it made my cruise stop working, FYI. Mine r spec d tuning.

 

[chauncey0337]

Boozer, can you really see anything with those led rev bulbs? Mine look just as bright, if not brighter, when you're looking at them from behind but when I'm looking out from the drivers seat, they don't do much as far as lighting up the road.

they are brighter than the factory, its a different kind of light. i think there are good for what i need. i back up in my parking spot everyday and havent hit anything yet, lol

I have similar style led reverse bulbs and mine are pretty bright, they do light the ground up behind the vehicle. All that said I have a reverse cam with IR night vision so I can back up when its pitch black lol...
