yeah and also if you get the hyperwhite bulbs and put em in your tails, it makes it look like your lights light up pink. not cool. i tried replacing all my bulbs with blue ones, but decided to omit those. so youll prolly wanna get red.

Yes. You can use white for reverse, but the white LED bulbs in that size are not very bright. Yes, you can use amber for turns, but you will also need to add load equalizers so that they flash properly.

A load equalizer is an electronics gizmo like a ballast its basically a black box that you have to wire into the turn signal circuit if you use LED bulbs for your turn signals (that's why I didn't use LEDs for the turn signals). You can get it from autolumination.com who also sells the LED bulbs.

For reverse, I like the halogen reverse lights that I mentioned earlier from PepBoys. They're either 50 or 55 Watt and plug right into the stock fitting and they're brighter than stock.

I had super white LED's on my side markers with a tinted lens and it was fine.
