Reverse light upgrade, what bulbs?

[stu21t]

Has anyone upgraded their reverse lights?
If so which bulbs did you use?

Will these fit?
At 825 lumens they should be very bright!

I have the same issue, very poor lighting for reverse. Hope we get some pointers to resolve the issue

No idea re F15 & unsure if there are issues re loom, fuses &/or error messages on E53.

Hopefully someone who has upgraded may be able to clarify.

Quite handy to be able to see when reversing when it is dark.

Hi. I am in the process of updating light bulbs on my 2008 e70 also, to nice white led, everywhere possible.

I too need better reverse/backup light, so I purchased these (image below) and will report with a photo on the improvement after fitting this coming weekend.

PS. the OEM light bulb type is a 921 type
(cross references includes; T15, W16W, T13, 904, 906, 912, 921, 2827).
Although you should check bulb dimensions for fitment in place.

Rear upgraded LED bulbs in place. I would say they are at least twice as bright than the standard bulbs. But I have no way to measure this. It is also difficult to capture an image of...but here it is...

Nice one! I need to do this as well.

Was it an easy conversion or was there some modifications needed?
