Anyone have any experience with them flickering? I had some LEDs on my 2014 and had to take them out due to the constant flickering. Really bummed me out because they looked so cool compared to stock bulbs. Easily makes the car look more expensive and like a spaceship (not to mention functional).

I have the license plate leds and they are doing the exact same thing to me. I am on my second set also.

I have the XP80 and the BWG dark tint on reverse light and it's still way brighter than stock.

Does the brighter bulb interfere with the clarity of the back up camera? Just curious. I'm trying to put together a list for future mods.

Definitely get the brighter bulb. I cheaped out on my '14 F150 TT and regretted it. On my '15 GT I got the brightest bulb and it works perfectly - doesn't interfere at all with the camera.

Sounds like I'll be getting the XP80. Just can't justify spending 50 bucks on a reverse light right now lol

When it comes to reverse bulbs I go as bright as possible. This car I think really needs it as ppl don't pay attention to the low center reverse light.

This is a very good point

XP80 is definitely the way to go to be able to see behind you at night, especially if you have darkish tint. It's probably more noticeable to other drivers and pedestrians too, given that the housing is mounted so low. The super brightness even in daylight makes it more clear to others that you are about to back up, especially in parking lots.

I personally don't notice the light, but those behind me do. And that will help make all the difference. Go bright so you're noticed at night.
