Hello

is there such a thing as a LED reverse light for a hatchback ? 04-09?

I dont think so... I need a pair of reverse lights and the wreckers near me and they say they dont have any bulb style in stock however they have LED Reverse lights on a couple of hatchback lids
. i said fine ok how much and they said its 150 dollars........... I dont know mazda3 enough to say they are fools but I think so...

they're probably just not the sharpest tools in the shed and think you're wanting the entire taillight assembly not just the reverse light portion on the trunk lid... that would be my guess

+1 I think they are talking about the whole assembly, not just bulbs. Bulbs are cheap.

Yeah, or unless they have aftermarket bulbs in the reverse lights, they definitely don't come stock like that.

Brand new reverse lights from the dealer are about $80 each, or at least that's how much they were when I bought them 2 years ago. They may have come down in price since, I suggest giving MOT a call to get a price ;)

A noob question for people who has LED bulb for reverse light, does it cause hyper blank?

Hyper flash, like the corner lights flash really fast because the car thinks one of the bulb went due to the low power that LED bulb draws.
