What y'all using for reverse lights? I bought some LED's from Amazon and they are not bright enough can't see crap at night when backing up.

On your '18 QX80, is there a removable cover to access the reverse bulb?

Here's the bulb(s) installed in the taillight housing.

Our driveway isn't lit, with the exception of the neighbor's motion light. You can see the output and 6K hue reaches across and overpowers their motion light.

That is how the majority of vehicles are being manufactured with proprietary LEDs built into the light housings. Once they fail or begin to weaken, you have no choice but to replace the entire headlight or taillight housing.
I wanted to change the LED signal bulbs on the side mirrors, to match my custom 3K DRLs that I did on the front. When I finally got to it, it was a completely sealed lens with no access to replacing the bulb. The past DIY retrofitter in me wanted to cut that lens open and install a pair of 3K LED bulbs. But it'd be more of a headache if the bulbs stopped working and having to reopen the lenses again.
