Just me then, and maybe I am being a grumpy old man .I also get annoyed at people who insist on unnecessary floodlighting their house, especially when it annoys others.
Headlights are justified - if you take positive action not dazzle others. And a brighter boot light if you want. But reversing lights are restricted to 24 watts, usually 21 w , for a reason. Its bright enough for the purpose without being a hazard to others. Speculation here but could the reason no led bulbs have an approval mark is because none can meet the approved safety specification. Unless maybe as part of a specially designed light unit. My mk 4 EX reversing lights have special Fresnel lenses and I'm not even sure that uses leds. .
IMO retrofitting led reversing bulbs to a car not designed for them is either pointless because it wont increase light, or if it does increase light it contravenes the whole point of limiting wattage to prevent dazzling others. Otherwise why not just fit main beam headlights at the rear. You'd see even better.
My point about Jocko's reversing light is he was pleased with its performance with a filament bulb. It makes a huge difference. It doesnt necessarily follow that you must therefore upgrade it .
