Some pics of the LED reverse lights I just installed, I ordered them from SuperBrightLEDs.com, BA15 4Watt LED bulb-*****, 1156-W3x1.3
First pic is a comparison between the LED and an 'upgraded' hyper white style bulb I had been running. Other two pics show the light output.... I'm very happy with them, they definitely exceeded my expectations

Btw, I do have some new stuffs in the works:
*DEI Titanium Turbine Blanket
*DEI Titanium heat wrap on my entire exhaust, dp back to the GT spec--- as much for noise suppression as for help with thermal control
*Some juicy new coilovers, more to follow on this one
*Found a legit local fabricator/welder, so going to clean up my intercooler piping a bit in an effort to pick up a bit more spool
*Possibly another set of wheels, and hopefully my final set for awhile

Its been on for a little over a year now and its still black. Its a very flat black though, not very deep in color. Much better than without though.

3 watts is very bright for reverse lamps.
I think he used these Tom:

Titanium turbo blanket? Titanium doesn't handle heat well, it gets brittle.
Any long term update on the RA Super Seals? ...and the RX8 e-shaft?
Are you running a FMIC?

and yes he has an FMIC.
Wait, that's not GOLD though... but a fake WanntaBE GOLD!

No the ones he posted were the 3 watt ones at $12 per light. 4 watts would be way overkill for the reverses unless you drive a lot in reverse
Some of the newer 5-7 watt LED bulbs run about $30 per light so they are pricey but worth it. Kind of like someone's LED taillight conversions I know of

Isn't that the limited edition $1.5 million One77 
so which is it?
and yes i know 1.3w * 3 = 3.9w
i was assuming that they round up to 4w just for the product name.
so did you get the 3w or the 4w rich?
