Default Higer output backup lights?

Does anyone know if there are higher output bulbs for the backup lights that are simple plug in replacements? If so is there a source for them?

I have a '99 Accord.

Thanks!

higher output.. like more light? or more power?

the hyper white led's like cadillac now uses on their reverse lights are very bright.

Why do you want brighter reverse lights? Just curious.

I want to be able to see better when backing out of some very dark drives after I get through tinting the windows and so I am trying to find some brighter/higher output bulbs to use.

I have upgraded the headlights to the Sylvania Ultra whatevers and they do make a difference. Perhaps backup lights, too?

I guess it would, but I was looking for something that is a simple plug in replacement.

Thanks to all.
