Default Backup Lights

I am not sure why, but the backup lights on the GV just don't seem light up the rear of the car enough. Has anyone tried a different bulb that works better?

You mean the reversing lights ?

I think they are fine. I have the OEM bulbs.

Have you looked at something like this:All Products - White Night Rear Lighting Truck and SUV Reverse Lights
I've thought about getting something that mounts to the receiver hitch I installed. I have not yet taken the time to see if I have enough clearance though.
