Reverse lights
Do we have reverse lights on the tail light? I know at the bottom there are lights for reversing but are there any coming out of the tail light? I just got my car back after an accident

No reverse lights in the tail light assemblies, only in the light assembly that is in the diffuser

There is a kit where you can move the reverse lights to the rear blinkers. Its part of the tail as turn kit from Diode Dynamics.
Here you go... |

They are plenty bright they are just so bloody low they don't do much. You never noticed before you crashed the car?

I keep on the brake enough to activate the lights as they are more useful even. Need to get around to installing my backup cam

Also changing other lights on your car to brighter led isn't a bad thing too! I change my cab light to an array.. A bit bright, but I like it. You can also get this kit https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1 |
