Do LED license plate lights affect back up cam?
Was looking to get LEDs for my 07 type s but was concerned if they might affect the visibility on the back up cam as do reverse LED lights?

Thanks!

I removed the stock reverse lights and replaced them with brighter LED lights. Really helps to illuminate behind the car and helps to see when using the back up cam at night.

The only way it would effect visibility is in a good way. Provided you don't get crappy LEDs.

Yeah they affect them by increasing the amount of light so your camera works better

It will help with visibility in the rear and will look a million times better... I hate yellow plate bulbs... It's always my #1 mod!
