  • Upgrading reverse globes

    Hi all, has anyone upgraded the globes in the standard reversing lights in a 150. I was thinking of trying some LED globes before adding a seperate light.

    Any help greatly appreciated.

      Not LED in mine. I am looking in the manual to see if they list the globe type.

        I had a look in the manual the other day and they have a regular globe, from memory it was 16W with a wedge base. I'll take one out and have a closer look in the next few days to see what I can fit in and then trawl google to see what options there are out there. There has to be something out there that is better than what they have now.

          Let us know how you go. I would be interested in doing the same if the results are worth it.

              Well, I took the bulb out and had a look, it had the following on it:

              Stanley 12V
              WY 21W
              21BB
              E4
              2FG

              on the plastic where it clicks in it has Stanley P8162

              Here is a pic of the bulb


              After doing some searching it is referred to as a T10, or 501 or type 921 bulb. I have orderd a couple of types on fleabay to try them out and will report back results.

                I think you will find the Cree Q5 one will put out better light than the SMD as the light is cooming mostly from the side of the globe. But my reversing light is white not orange, are you sure it is the correct globe.

                  My GXL globe is orange.

                  WRONG. Looking at the wrong globe, not wearing my glasses.

                    Looks like the indicator globe to me.

                        Yep, I'm claiming a blonde moment....well I would if I had any hair left

                        The pic is of the indicator, but the type, i.e. T10, 501 921 is the reverse globe #, the only question is if the LED's will physically fit. i'll find out when they turn up soon and will report back.

                          With my wife, blonde is a state of mind - not a hair colour.

                              Hi all,

                              I am in Europe for work for a couple of weeks and the new globes had not arrived before I left Oz. I'm back at the end of next week and hopefully they would have arrived while I am away. I'll try them out as soon as I get back and let you know.

                              Have not seen a single Prado over here yet, but love driving here, so much better than home. Unfortunately a diesel Golf will only just do 200, I wonder what a Prado will do?
