  • Goal: Increase the brightness of my reverse lights on the back of the truck for better visibility while backing-up and find suitable LED replacements for the stop/turn (red brake) lights on my OEM tail lights. I was reluctant to upgrade to LED lights for my tail lights as I didn't want something unreliable or problematic that would throw CANBUS errors or cause other issues with my new truck. But, I decided to try out several bulbs from GTR Lighting including:
    Reverse - GTR Ultra Series 921 LED Reverse Bulbs
    amzn.to/3NpNDvz
    License Plate - GTR Low Profile T10/194 Carbide 2 LED Bulbs
    amzn.to/47Mq0pj
    Stop/Turn - GTR i-LED Ultra 7440/7443 Non-CK Red LED Bulbs
    amzn.to/46ZlH91
    - or -

    Stop/Turn - GTR i-LED Ultra Hyperflash Adapters
    amzn.to/3No6EOY
    The big question is, will these bulbs perform as expected? Will I get any errors on my truck, especially after extended run times on the bulbs? Well, that's precisely why I tested them for about 2 months prior to publishing this video. Watch the video till the end to find out my results!

    Longtime fan here. Hey have someone follow you at night and brake - I think ONLY that red led is gonna annoy/blind drivers following you. I’ve seen a few aftermarket’s and they are outside allowed regulation too bright in my opinion. Otherwise ❤ the channel.

      Great point. Definitely don't want to be too bright!

    If you really want to improve the backup light system, for less than $25 you can get the Dual Function Wiring Harness for the late model Silverado/Sierra. It’s a 5 minute install, and enables the top of the cab cargo lights to become additional backup lights.

    I have a 2024 Sierra 1500. I didn’t think the reverse lights are LEDs, but I’m unsure now, after getting the taillights off the truck with my T15s. The wiring harness has a small red clip that I undo, but I’m unsure how to detach it from the truck once I oust that clip. I still need to kill it apart or something and I have had no luck. Was yours similar at the reverse lights? I believe I undo that red clip and just pull? I don’t think I twist like in earlier model Sierras/Silverado’s. 🤷‍♂️ I just can’t detach the wiring harness from the actual light, and might just need to pull harder? I didn’t want to break anything. Any input would be so appreciated.

    • @AdventureRocks
      @AdventureRocks  2 місяці тому

      I believe if it is a twist/turn then it's incandescent. But, if it is a harness with clip/lock it is more likely LED. ...I believe that is the case, but there could be other variations certainly.

    @AdventureRocks I love your new truck. How long did it take to get the truck delivered from order date to delivery date to dealer.
    I am asking because I am considering ordering a 2500 with the gas engine. I have a GMC 3500 Duramax and want to add a gas 2500 to the “fleet”. My understanding is that you ordered yours and not chose from one on the lot. Thanks in advance!

    • @AdventureRocks
      @AdventureRocks  5 місяців тому +1

      It was about 2 months start to finish. It seems like the gas trucks are coming out pretty quick in general. I know someone else that ordered an AT4 gasser at same time, and it was also about 2 months start to finish.

    • @AdventureRocks
      @AdventureRocks  6 місяців тому +1

      Yes, for me LASFIT was a contender. I've had great experience and support with the vendor GTR/Headlight Revolution, so went with them this route. The brightness really is insane...game changer especially with reverse.

    Any other lower cost option? The GTR set option is as 165 USD.

    • @AdventureRocks
      @AdventureRocks  23 дні тому

      I hear you. I was reluctant to purchase given the higher price point, but I got to say they are completely worth it. I was concerned about going cheaper and then having the lights fail down the road. The GTR have given me zero problems so far.

      @AdventureRocks  6 місяців тому +2

      Update: About 1500 mi and 2+ months since install...no error codes or hyper flash...no issues. I think the red stop/turn are the most susceptible to causing errors on cars...the resistor module fixes that...and this particular brand seems to be higher quality.

      Yes, difference between LED (left) and incandescent (right). Basically the incandescent has to "warm" up ea time, whereas LED is near instant on/off.
