Re: brighter back up light bulbs.

I bought those a while back but have not installed them yet. How do you like them so far?

Re: brighter back up light bulbs.

I went ahead and replaced the rear turn signals and brake lights with the Silverstars. Much brighter and in time too. All the other bulbs were original to the car and the glass bulb came out of its holder.
