i used piaa extremes. i had to enlarge the opening to fit a normal 1156 bulb in there. took me 5 mins maybe. it lights up bright white w/ tint of purple since the lenses are pink it mixes with the blue tint of the piaas

Before anyone goes out and buys bulbs WAIT!! i thought i had the right size down, but it turned out that the reverse bulb is long and kind retangular as opposed to just a round circular bulb. I actually shattered my PolarG bulb trying to force it in. I then later realized that PolarG doesnt even make a bulb in the type/size that we need. Raybrig does though, its a hyperwhite color, but im sure that it comes in different colors. This is what the bulb should look like

just enlarge the opening. i used pliars. just stuck them in closed an opened them inside the opening to slightly enlarge the hole. u dont even need to take ur tailights off. just be patient.
