Reverse lights in rear bumper question

[TopGunViper]

is it possible to install these reverse lights in this position where the reflectors are on the rear bumper? I dont know if there’s anything behind the bumper which wouldn’t allow this.

Yes, I’ve seen these and would be perfect but not seen a lot of good reviews about the quality Like water getting inside of these lights.

Could be fitment issues. Had to take Dremel to one to get it to fit. Known issue.

Once I got them in I have had no issues with mine. Very bright.

Maybe something different?

I installed the Oracle lights around a year ago and had been worried about the fit and water intrusion. I called Oracle and they said they had redesigned them to address the issues, but said there was many of the old version still in dealer inventory. So I ordered directly from Oracle.

The reflector holes in the rear bumper are probably stamped and many have found variation in the L/R opening sizes. One side was smaller on mine so I carefully rolled the edge back with a hammer to enlarge it slightly.

With that, the lights fit well, have had no leaks and are very bright.

The space behind the bumper is fairly tight, maybe some one will have exact measurements but with the 3"+ depth of the RC lights the fit seems improbable.

Anyone have any pics of the light output of the Oracles?
Are they a little more light than stock led reverse light or a lot more light?

They are bright!

May be a bit hard to see in the pics due to the cul-de-sac street lights and driveway incline, but they are considerably brighter than OE. No complaints so far, and no issues.

Mine have been great. They are bright and really light up the area behind my Jeep.
I have had no issues with water getting in them.

The reverse lights are extremely bright as shown in examples above. And our Cyber Monday sale starts today!!!

This was my exact experience. Bad stamping at the factory made it very difficult to remove one of the reflectors and install the Oracle light. The other side was easy, peasy. Highly recommend this solution at this time. I am worried about the water intrusion into the light as many have reported. Hasn’t happened yet on mine. Removing the rear bumper wasn’t too difficult and made installing the lights much easier.
