i'd save my money and just get some regular led bulbs for those. I don't see the point in buying and installing a whole new kit when you'll probably be out of reverse by the time the bulb warms up

I have a H3 HID bulb in 3000k golden yellow if anyone wants it.

I don't know if it will fit or not though.

It has standard AWP connections to work with most ballasts/ignitors.

all you guys got to do is ask lol im willing to answer all questions about it...DREW what part of NY?

i just bought a spare reverse light assembly to hack up i think i am going to try to use the original bulb socket and cut out the insides and see if i can get a HID bulb into the hole. that way i use the original socket and it goes into the reverse light like it was made for it. also, no need to remove the entire assembly just to swap out bulbs

hey marcemarcxB08 where did you source the 12V for the relay?
