Reverse lights... what's everyone got?

4cstr · Dec 21, 2011

I just ordered up a set of the cree led reverse lights for our Excursion. The stock rear lenses are stock...but the rear window has limo tinting on it...so makes it very hard to see out of at night. Hoping the extra light helps.

I have RECON clear LED tail lights but still added extra reverse lights. KC reverse light kit hanging from my bumper.

Got any pics of that KC reverse light kit?

Wow, that's awesome. Appreciate the pics. I think that's the way I want to go...

I haven't heard of anyone who hasn't been super happy with the CREE bulbs from retrosolutions.com If they don't show up under the tree, I'm hoping to order a set ASAP. (I'm on strict "don't buy anything until after christmas" ban from the family. . .

I have cree LEDs, they work good. On my next truck I'm going to throw a rigid lightbar in the back. More light than stock headlights, for backing up.

Probably getting paid at work to post this from my D1

I have two cheap walmart fog lights under the rear bumper on a switch. But I am kicking myself for not getting the Retro CREE's during the black friday sale.

Yeah, that's probably a really sweet setup, but I certainly don't have the coin for that haha. I bet that will bad arse though!

I have retros Cree led's and they weren't bright enough with my limo tint so I got a rigid dually led wired to the reverse lights and now I am happy with the light output.
