I got my reverse LED lights from Amazon for my 2019 LTZ and have had no issues.  I have the same lights in my 2016 LTZ and have had no issues with those either.  Both sets are 1000 lumens and they make it much easier to see at night when backing up.  I think the parasitic drain issue is way overblown.

Here's the best reason for not substituting LEDs for reverse lamps.......seems the on next gen. models the BCM monitoring of the bulb outage circuits may continue to draw current with key off if original halogen is replaced by an LED. Length of time necessary to kill battery may be dependent upon brand of LED substituted.

If you get CANBUS compatible LED bulbs you should not have a problem.

Did you get these installed? I got a pair and the white end doesn't seem to fit into the socket properly.. it feels to tight and I don't want to force it in or break it..

I’m having the same issue. Purchased the Philips 921 everyone has suggested and cannot get them to fit. The connection appears the same but the round part of the base does not fit into the socket. I’ve applied a lot of force and no luck. Planning to return to amazon. Any other tips here? Insert “how many _____ does it take to change a lightbulb” jokes here. Haha.

Will these Phillips work for the 2021 gmc 1500


What trim level? SLT, AT4 and Denali already have LED reverse lights that aren’t replaceable.

    • I don't wanna do major surgery/upgrades, behind-the-dash work, add amps, change radio etc. on my '26 std cab WT. On the WT, it has the base 7" IOR infotainment setup, and only two speakers (doors). Since I listen to classical, looked around for speakers that do well and dug thru reviews. Two-way speakers were found to be better than 3-way. So I've ordered a pair of  Infinity Reference REF-9632IX 2 way speakers.  [These may  or may not have been discontinued / succeeded by the 3-way ...9633 ones.]    These speakers are lauded for 3 ohm and 94db sensitivity spec so they'll work well for ordinary base car radios without amps and offer better performance (quality,  strength) than  default base paper-cone speakers. They'll be installed in a few days and I'll let y'all know what I think. Bill W San Jose      
    • Thanks!   Changed out the rear shocks today to Bilstein 5100s.  So far feel much better. The stock Rancho were wore out.  Lots of heavy hauling (2 moves, home renovations, etc).  Next up is new BFG tires Monday.  Cant wait the current tires have little to no wet traction and are super loud (hum)    
    • Ok, I got the all the codes. What do you all think would be a place to start?
    • How about I just point to the factory pans stand pipe little drain plug and claim its a pan with a real drain plug !. I just couldn't swallow the fact that a Dorman pan which at this point is probably the only pan out there that fits the gas version truck cost that much up here in Canada so I decided initially anyway to skip it and see what I thought of pulling the pan method and down the road if I felt inclined enough then I would either install a drain plug kit in the factory pan if there is enough room for it, or have a bung welded onto it, or put an aftermarket pan on. The thing is if the pan is not pulled then the magnets in the pan can't be inspected and cleaned or if wanting to change out the filter. However of course it certainly would make the job easier to be able to drop the oil first before having to handle the pan if dropping the pan that go around was the goal.    I knew a guy locally that was doing custom field spraying years ago with a pickup pulling a ground driven sprayer, I believe it was a GM pickup with an automatic trans. He had a drain plug in his pan and would drop the oil out of it once a week and top it back up through the dipstick tube to keep refreshing a portion of the oil often and that made the transmission last far longer than had he done nothing. Soft fields pulling 500 gallons of water at the start of each mixed up sprayer tank batch and in low range sucking along. I imagine he got some tips from other custom sprayer outfits doing the same thing at the time and learning from their blown up tranny mistakes. Transmissions then had no lock up converter so would cook the crap out of the fluid slipping that much and it would not have been synthetic fluid either.
