Reverse lamp upgrade bulbs?

Just found these and to me, they maybe seem too high a wattage???

But the resulting fire might increase reversing visibility. So swings and roundabouts then! Tom

I sourced some cree LED ones but the bulbs were too long for the light unit, as Stan suspected at the time.

Still with the originals unfortunately.

They are halogen units, not that you'd tell !

These on the site you have used ;

Something I noticed. After changing every bulb in the rear light units to LED, for the first time ever, the light units would show a little bit of condensation overnight. I wondered if it was the fact I'd had the light units on, off and apart so many times whilst trying trialling appropriate bulbs?

But then I changed all bulbs back to incandescent for the MOT. The condensation disappeared, presumably because standard bulbs get hotter and dry the area out.

Unfortunately those bulbs wont fit as the locating pins are opposite each other, the reversing light bulbs have staggered pins..... Pete
