    I have used many different bulbs sold out in the market today for reverse light bulbs and I found these LED bulbs to have the brightest out put for sure. I do not have a light lumen tester or anything I am simply stating these bulbs are noticeable brighter compared to all the other bulbs I have used. Hope to help those looking for a bright reverse light bulb. Plug and play so easy install.


    I found the best price to be on ebay - AUXITO LED Reverse Backup Light 921 Bulbs ...$29 or so, there are many different sellers of these bulbs

    Specs
    2000 LM per bulb - 4000 LM total
    color: HID white (6000k)
    Canbus - Plug and play

    On my gen 2 tacoma I mounted flush mount LED lights cut into the bumper but I did not want put my new tacoma under the knife so soon. I did some digging to find new play and play LED bulbs and these are the ones I found and very happy with them. I actually bought 4 sets, 2 for my cars and 2 for a friend.

    I will get better photos of the LED reverse light output.

    Those who purchased the Auxito LED bulbs please post up your thoughts and review of LED lights after install.

    I am currently communicating with the Light company about pricing hopefully I can get a competitive price that I could offer the LED bulbs to TW members rather than purchasing form eBay and such.

    Thanks all!

    I see that big heat sink, any chance that they could melt the housing?

    They look awesome. I will have to order those. I'm still waiting on @XenonDepot to ship my LED headlights. They were out of stock when I ordered on 8-22-18. Got an email from them on 9-5-18 that they would ship on the week of the 17th. They have already charged my credit card. I figured they would wait until they ship before the charge. Just hope they are as good as the reviews I've read.

    I can't imagine it causing a problem unless you spend a hell of a lot of time in reverse.

    I have not read any issues of melting the light housing. I do plan on installing a switch to turn on my reverse lights on when every I want. The same set up I had on my gen2 so I can update on this questions later on.

    I use simple electrical grease on the connector but the wiring and nicely insulated and sealed. Install is a simple plug and play nothing fancy.
