Much brighter, whiter. This was an easy upgrade. Just patiently remove the clips that hold the liner to the trunk lid to access the back up lights. You have to rotate the socket counter-clockwise to remove it. Mine were in there pretty tight, but once I’d confirmed the correct way to remove them, applying a little extra force got them unstuck. Out with the old, in with the new. Just be sure to not touch bulbs with your bare hands or your skin oils will shorten the life of the bulb. I bought these 1000-Lumen Extremely Bright LED Backup Light Bulbs – Xenon White 6000K off Amazon for this project.
