i got my led's in today, the int lights are so bright its like flash lights above my head! the rear reverse lights are not as bright as the stock blubs for some reason? is there a brighter led for the reverse lamps? i installed the left & the right was left stock & when looking at them you cant look right at the stock light because its so bright & the led is weaker.
UPDATE: I put the LED's in the headlight lastnight & those look sick! much better then the yellow light that was shining, looks like theres hid's in both now!
Yes, the reverse leds will not be brighter, because they are not designed to reflect out light in that housing like the bulb is designed to do. I have seen different style leds and higher brighnesses for reverse but have yet to find one that works good for the escalade.
So far the brightest reverse lights Ive had are xenon bulbs.
Not long time ago I had to meet somebody from this forum. the reverse lights he's got were pretty cool and very bright. 25 LED's per light bulb. If any questions, hes name on this forum is "Vecstasy"
hope this will help
I sure hope that GM puts in LEDs in the 2009 Escalade. With as much as the Escalade costs, I don't know why they didn't do it already. Seems like a no brainer to me!
not gonna happen. they are so cheapos. and on top of that, with all the new changes in the lineup...they are taking a big hit on the bottom lines, with the SUV sales dropping like crazy. keep in mind that that the latest model did not have a lot of "goodies" from the previous. you know some small things, like instant mileage, duh... and they changed the seats, making these smaller, they took out the cabin filter, and such others...my guess? not gonna happen. but who knows. good luck though.
