I have a 2018 Wrangler JL Unlimited Sahara with the LED light package.

When the Jeep is in reverse and I use the backup camera on the 8 inch screen. It is very low light, I usual need to hit the brakes to get the extra light output from the red LED brake lights,

Has one changed their LED reverse light bulbs for this same reason?

thanks!!!

I have some halogen bulbs I'm replacing with high powered LED ones. They are on their way. I've been told they greatly improve things.

Reverse lights are horrible I must admit.

Slap one of these on and you'll light up everything..works beautifully

I’m hoping someone will eventually make led lights to replace the reflectors in the bumper.

I never bought them! Haven’t done anything yet but dealt with it
There isn’t a bulb in the world that you could buy, you have factory LED tail lights. There are no bulbs. All you can do is mount a pod or light bar and wire it to the trailer wiring.

That is a good idea. Thanks for the picture! I'll be doing this very soon. It can also double as am effective tailgater repellant.
