Default These suck

I got these cuz I wanted a brighter reverse light through my tinted tails. I thought I was in 4th instead of reverse cuz there dim as hell.

Just a tip for the future. If the bulb has a tint on the glass it will never be brighter than a clear glass bulb. The human eye is more sensitive to blue light than other colors making it SEEM brighter; in actuality you see less with it.

Try these, you should also upgrade the wiring for them to handle the greater wattage.

Ya I got the luminics for the front but they are still better than stock however I am getting HID's now.

And yeah that would have helped. They do look whiter but dim as hell. I couldnt see sh*t. Now I gotta take the lights off again.
