Default C7 Backup lights

Guys -

I know this is minor, but I would really like to have brighter backup lights. I see the LED lights for the license plate, but has anyone seen or done an upgrade for the backups?

Thanks,

Ken

Ken - I would bet there is an upgrade for the backup lights. You might want to touch base with vendors like Sharp Light Innovations or Diode Dynamics.

I believe the tail lights are one integrated assembly with turn and backup. The whole assembly is all led. If you want more backup light you may have to add separate lights.
