Which LED Backup light?

One of my reverse lights is dead and I’m thinking of replacing them with LED. Which LEDs did you guys go with for here, and how are they holding up?

thanks!

 

Meso Stage 1 tails

 

ME-SO Customs - Total Tail Stage 1 - Toyota Tacoma (2016-2020) – Runnin 4 Tacos

 

A set that came with a $25 interior light kit from Amazon. So far they've held up well. Can't say they do much more than stock other than make the light appear white which is all I really cared about at the time.

They are like high beams in reverse. Also I did interior LED swap from Amazon, but didn't replace license plate lights because if they are too bright they will wash out backup camera.

 

I like these reverse bulb upgrades. Cheaper than new complete tails. I chose the XPR $90 option..

As noted above, don't upgrade license light. It will wash out the camera.

 

I use a bracket from cali raised to put an LED pod to the left of the top tailgate. I usually have it pointing straight back for tailgaters but it works great for reverse or a work light at night. Can also angle it down or turn it left and right

I have these also, agreed. Backup camera is like daytime (while backing up at night).

 

I totally agree with the meso stage 1 tails. I think they are actually in stock at the moment.

 

They are and I linked it.

 

A lot options OP.

If you want to add more (maybe overkill)
Baja Design S1 POD used with a hitch pod adds a lot of light
Also, if you do not want to take up the hitch space a License plate reverse bar also adds a lot of light. VLED make ones, I think there is another company makes one but can't remember who it was? I've used both, both have been great.

 

@MESO will these work on a 21 Pro? Listing says til 2020

 

Mines a 2021 Sport

 

Says on Amazon these will not fit a 2018 Tacoma...BS? Any tricks to make them work?

 

I have these as well. installed back in January in my '17. Plugged right in and are still bright af.

 

Just install them correctly? Should fit 16-21. Amazon's descriptions are not always accurate and sometimes based on user error reports on product fitment.
