I like the new reverse light sitting low under the bumper, probably will provide better vision in the dark.

I want to investigate the possibility of retrofitting it on my 2008 LB, can someone help in identifying the part number? Thanks.

Failing which I can approach a dealership.

I like this lens and housing assembly, not too flashy and I can replace the bulbs with LEDs.

I've seen those after market LEDs for Scion FR-s, with red triangle design, too loud for my liking.

I'm saying replace your existing reverse bulbs with LED. Uber bright.

looks like you have your mind made up. good luck, i like that too!

why didnt you go with something like these? (yeah it looks ghetto i know, but properly retrofit it and it should look flush as well.)

Really interested in seeing how you are going to fab that up. We don't have a lot of room underneath the license plate recess for hole cutting. Also, the light will be pointing toward the ground due to curvature of that area of the bumper cover.
