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.

    • No engine digit "E" for 2019-2026.  Stop reading slop online     All 2026 V8s have functioning DFM.  Hardware and software.  5.3 and 6.2.  The L84 5.3 has "D" as the 8th digit of the VIN, the L87 6.2 has "L" as the 8th digit of the VIN.       If you want a factory DFM disabled 2019-2026, you'd have to find a used 2021 or 2022 chip shortage truck.  The vehicle build data will have a specific RPO code indicating its a factory disabled truck.  RPO code YK9 and only with the L84 5.3 engine.  These still have the hardware installed but are NOT functioning due to the COVID chip shortages that were ongoing.  
    • My post above is the direct reason for my outsized interest in keeping what I have for as long as possible. My memory isn't as short as some. 
    • I don't think so. 😏 Cars? Our experience will diverge there as well. I was buying cars with 200K (1970's) when I started and quite a few were pretty solid cars. (My early stuff was 1964 to 1968)  Some stinkers but not the dismal picture painted above. Now that said, yes, a dealer wouldn't talk to you if your car had more than 60K on the clock and lot cars were 60K or less except the back row where 100-120K was the auction bought for dirt for us poor losers. Kids in my county were not allowed to wear long pants if they couldn't rebuild and repair every part of that beast.    I will agree that many parts are now better. Alternators and charging systems are an envy. But I replaced few water pumps or power steering pumps then. Rebuilt carburetors but replaced few. Mufflers are another place of OEM improvement. Stainless? We didn't have no stink'n stainless.    As long as humans are in charge of governance this $$$$ situation will not improve.    The purchasing power of a dollar in 1955 is significantly higher than in 2025, meaning that a dollar could buy more goods and services in 1955 compared to 2025 due to inflation over the years. For example, what you could buy for $1 in 1955 would require approximately $10.50 in 2025.  Calculator.net inflationtool.com   Comparison of Purchasing Power: 1955 vs 2025 The purchasing power of a dollar has changed significantly from 1955 to 2025 due to inflation. Below is a breakdown of how much more money is needed in 2025 to match the buying power of a dollar in 1955. Purchasing Power Overview Year Equivalent Value of $1 in 1955 1955 $1.00 2025 $10.50 Key Points Inflation Impact: The value of money decreases over time due to inflation, meaning that the same amount of money buys fewer goods and services in the future. Example of Inflation: What could be purchased for $1 in 1955 would require approximately $10.50 in 2025. This illustrates how inflation has eroded the purchasing power of the dollar over the decades. Understanding these changes in purchasing power is crucial for financial planning and assessing economic conditions over time.  Wikipedia Calculator.net
    • The thermometer has been in my wife's 2008 envoy, my sons 2016 chevy, my friends 2020 1500 silverado all showing cooler readings. It's not the guage.
    • Have a question concerning trim levels. Ive not bought a new vehicle since 2006, and I have decided on a 2500 gmc pro or silverado custom. For anyone that has one of these 2 trim levels have you regretted not stepping up to the LT or SLE. I look at things as the more electronics the more problems to arise. I love the look of the old school gauges on the dash as well. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts.
