What are some good inexpensive options for reverse LEDs in my LCI e92? I'm looking for something that illuminates the ground very well in low-light situations.

Thanks!

Lux. Oh wait, you said "inexpensive."

Highperformancebulbs?

As far as I know, all of them have issues with the bulb checks which result sin them flickering during startup and driving, so I would stay away.

Yes, unfortunately, all of them do. But, you can code the bulb check out.

I have gp Cree led from e92-lighting cost about£65 work well with no coding issues

I know a good local coder (@djkevinnn) who can handle that for me

Lux worked for me. Had to code out the flicker but I already knew that when I bought them.

Works great with tinted windows too... makes it soooo much easier to back up now.

I just got my front windshield tinted 50% and it is so dark inside my car now. May just pick up the Lux. How hard was it to install? From 1-10 10 being downpipes and 1 being side maker LED swap

should take about 5-10 minutes. There is a full install guide on our website for these as well. You only need 1 tool to unscrew the light and thats all. It really is a huge brightness difference with them.

As always, we are the ones to who design lights to work correctly while other companies simply try to rip off our products and take all the credit

Arguably the brightest and best bang for the buck.

Any LED in the revesre light will flicker. No reason to stay away when coding is a 10 minute fix.

Yup! I installed them on an E92 in 5 minutes flat! Mind you, I am mechanically challenged. Just be sure to get the wires right, that's about it!

It's a more miserable experience on an E93 (as with most installs), but about the same- tack on 5 minutes to work around the damn reinforcement bars...

Your front windshield tinted? How is that not illegal?? Sounds dangerous!

It's very illegal and yes, it is dangerous.

It is illegal. not dangerous though - in my opinion at least

Illegal and highly dangerous pretty much go hand in hand, why else would they make it illegal to do so? You are blocking out light that could help prevent accidents, run over small object, or even run over pedestrians or children. Unless you have some medical condition requires this is just a bad idea. If an accident ever does happen and you are caught with a tinted front windshield you can expect some serious problems

Yeah it's a medical condition

Oh, well you probably should have mentioned that first.

I was soliciting recommendations on reverse LED bulbs, not opinions on my front windshield tint (which has already been done, by the way - no need to preach.)
