Default Which LED/SMD reverse light do you have?

Hey all
I have an 03 and I want to get a quality LED for the reverse. Im a hugee LED interior swap fanatic and I already finished my swap. I do want reverse but I want them to be bright and WHITE.
Preferably in the 4300-5000k range. I know where to get them but theyre usually 6000k and im not a fan.
Pics and a small review would be great!


Ive also wanted 4300k LEDs on the inside but I gave up hopes on that.

Thanks all.

If you want bright I can think of 2 options.

1. Cree LED's. These are very bright but tend to be a little more pin point light.Still very bright and affordable.

2. HID's. This is a little over kill and more expensive,but they are stupid bright.

Not sure if I would want HID's. Yeah its cool but a little over kill.

The Diode one is tempting, but it seems like the same stuff for double the price of Amazon. I got some 20 SMD bulbs for my license plates from Amazon for extremely cheap. Also, they are in the 5000k range, Diode Dynamics are more 6000Kish. Do you guys have a set of the Diode Dynamic kits?

54 SMD for $15 shipped lol

When shopping for LED's like this, make sure the diameter is small enough to fit through the opening in the lamp housing.
