The reverse lamp on the xB is wimpy! Ive heard of people using HID reverse lamps or bright LED lights....

Where can i buy one???!?!

I use super bright led's for mine, but if I could make them brighter, that would be rockin!

 

Here's the reverse light thread:
brightest solution for replacement back-up light (7440 bulb)

Page 13 has the HID info from marcemarcxB08, but be aware that the bulb was never properly mounted, it was just pushed up into the housing.

LED bulbs appear brighter when you are looking at them, but they throw off much less visible light over a distance. There's lots of info on this in the thread.

The CATZ T-20 bulb imported by Sigma Automotive is the only 7440 mount halogen bulb (25 watts) that is available. It is advertised as producing 39% more lumens than the stock incandescent bulb, but nobody has been willing to spend the $47 + shipping to find out.

its been almost 5 months and still havent had a problem with my hid in the reverse light...i dont expect there to be a problem anyway but if ur up to it try it out its amazing at night and a nice little upgrade ...i also have a youtube video..

 

marcemarc, just curious if it's still the crazy glue & silicon install, or if you ever did anything else.

Props for being the first (and probably only) person to do this.

 

same for now ive been thinking of making a bracket of some sort
