Reverse bulbs!!!! WHERE ARE THEY!!!!

This may be a dumb question, but does anyone know where you cant get reverse lights in different colors. Everywhere around here only has the oem colored bulbs and i'm lookin' either for white, blue, or red.

Reverse lights just aren't that big of a deal around here. I really don't want L.E.D.'s. Anybody else have an idea?

He said he didnt want any LEDs. IMO i prefer LEDs cuz you wont see the refection of the color (when the light IS NOT on) through the lens. Since most of the time the dont carry them at the autostore, just buy a colored cover (comes in red/blue/green)

why dont you want LEDs? I understand if it was your headlight but these are your taillights and will not burn out at all. LEDs last longer than halogen bulbs and use less electricity. Plus they are much brighter and you can get any color...

why dont you want them??

Well I guess I could use the LED bulbs. But from that site which ones would you guys recommend? I'm leaning more just towards white ones. I just dont like that stock yellowish look.

The LED reverse lights most likely won't be bright enough, but they'll look cool. Try http://autolumination.com/906.htm towards the bottom of the page.

Anything on the link I posted above will fit the reverse light, except for the multi-LED boards.

The size bulbs we use for our reverse light is 921.
Cross-reference of bulb sizes that are compatible and will work in our cars:
906 replaces : 579 901 904 908 909 912 914 915 916 917 918 920 921 922 923 926 927 928 939
