I have a 2024 Ranger. When I am in town the back-up bulbs are good enough because of the ambient light. But out at the farm in total darkness they are so dim they are nearly useless. I need to replace the bulbs with something with more lumens and 5000k+ but I don't want to spend a bunch of money. I know diode dynamics has them but I would like to go a bit cheaper. These are the diode dynamics mid range bulbs. They are $60 for a pair. https://www.diodedynamics.com/backup-leds-for-2019-2024-ford-ranger-xlt-pair.html

I have also seen some backup lights that fit in the hitch receiver. Does anyone have any experience with these?

Maybe I am just being cheap but I would really appreciate anyone's experience with this.

I used Sylvania Zevo 7443 bulbs and the work great with no issues for reverse lights

The bulbs with anti hyper flash are needed for the turn signals

That is what I was thinking I would use. But both Autozone and OReilly say they won't fit. This is a 2024 Ford Ranger XLT. Were the originals that you replaced incandescent, halogen, or LED? I think I can't replace OEM LED bulbs with these but I could replace incandescent.

Mine is a 2024 Lariat that had incandescent reverse bulbs and these work great for me.
Yes they will tell you they do not work but they do. As said they are working for me.

I just installed the Sylvania 7443 High Performance White ZEVO LED (7443LEDBP2) lamps and it's a significant improvement over the incandescent factory lamps.
