Nice...! John, I never stopped and wondered until today, but do you actually have the bulbs in 5000K? I have no problem with mine, especially since I have backup cam as well, but I'd imagine 5000K would have about 10% or so improvement on light output.

I dont have 5000K. It honestly shouldnt improve by much. There are studies that show 6000K had more light than 4300K and vice versa. I myself just prefer the 6000K. It shouldnt be notiicecable.

John, i've gotten some osaram cbi d1s bulbs, interior leds, working my way back getting rid of the halogen look on my 2008 LCI 528, and i've saved the reverse lights for last. I was going to do led but can't find any error free options and honestly the small 921 bulbs in led i don't see being very bright. Are these hid reverse lights 100% error free? Also do they have any sort of warranty? I'm nervous that the short amount of time that they are on will result in bulb failures (i've always read that turning hid bulbs on and off without a proper warm up time is bad for the bulb).

They are 100% error free. They carry a one year warranty but it has lasted much longer than that.
