    i bought the LED interior kit off of Amazon, and rather than replace my license plate lights, I used that set for my reverse lights. it was actually unintentional as I thought the kit came with reverse lights. In the end, they worked and are better than the factory reverse lights... my only concern was if it was an issue since the original bulbs are listed as different sizes.

    Thanks in advance

    What is the bulb size of the new LED reverse lights?

    Honestly as far as I could tell, it's came with 4 identical ones for the map lights and plate lights. They were all in one bag. The others were for dome and vanity mirror

    Got a link to the Amazon ad for what you bought? If it fit in the map lights and plate lights its probably a 194. A 194 pulls less amps and watts vs the 921 that was originally in that reverse bulb socket from the factory. You'll be fine. Realistically though, the difference between the two is negligible, especially if they are LED.
