Reversing Bulb Replacements

[doria7]

Hello

This is my first post. I'm from Brisbane and I have just bought a MY13 GLX Dual Cab manual diesel. I optioned it up with a tow harness, canopy, tinting and tub liner. Happy with the experience so far. I've replaced my 04 Toyota Prado.

I've spent a fair bit of time searching the forums of this wonderful site. The information is just so valuable. It's good to see what others have tried, and find out what works and what doesn't.

This brings me to my question. I've looked at what others have to say about reversing lights - all the options and the methods of installation. The Triton has such a big backside, I find it very hard to see while reversing - particularly at night. I'm very impressed with the small LED cree lights that have around 800lm output. However, I can't seem to find any detail about replacement bulbs. I found this item on ebay:

What do you think of these? The output seems good. If I could just get away with just replacing the bulbs, I would be very pleased.
Thanks.

Pretty sure that's the wrong fit. I thought our reverse globe was a wedge type of fitting?

[Cowboy Dave]

yeah that's them

[doria7]

Thank you Cowboy Dave and Tex

Yes, wasn't sure if it was the right fit - there's about 49 trillion listings for various bulbs!! Thanks for the link tom Sej's page. I saw he had installed bulbs as well as additional hella lights. Just wondering if the replacement bulbs would be adequate. The ones I posted are listed as having 400lm output.
Thanks again.

[Cowboy Dave]

The bulbs are cheap, just grab them and see what you think. I reckon they're great and whoever sees them always says they're going to grab a set afterwards.

[doria7]

Thanks, I'll grab some.

Thanks guys for reminding me about this ebay site, just ordered a set just now. It's very dark reversing out and down my driveway each morning, so looking forward to see how they perform.

[DocBassett]

Too busy with everyone else's Tritons to spend any time with yours???

I've jumped on board too. The standard reversing lights are so woeful they're dangerous.

[DocBassett]

I haven't recieved an email saying out of stock, so I might have gotten lucky

[Cowboy Dave]

There are plenty of other sellers selling what looks to be the identical thing. Mine came from China or somewhere like that.

[DocBassett]

They took my payment and gave me a receipt etc etc, but i emailed them and told them to get more in stock as there were plenty of people on here chasing them!!!!
