Brighter reverse lights?

Hey guys,

Just wondering if anyone had some xenon reverse bulbs for their MINI, particularly for the 05 and up. I also did the reverse light mod so i want to change that bulb as well. My bro has an is300 with these types of bulbs and when his reverse lights go on, there so bright its almost as if he has HID tailights! I dont want to be backing into anythin or possibly curbing my brand new wheels! I think piaa makes these bulbs so if anyone knows the # type of these three bulbs and where i can purchase them that wud be great!

Check out changing to LEDs. That's what I did.

www.autoluminations.com

1156 style 24 LED MATRIX bulbs. Fit in perfectly and way bright than standard bulbs. $9 each I think.
