Casts a shadow behind the car - not as good as standard bulbs

I have a Ford Escape 05 and installed this bulb in my reverse lights today. In daylight it's hard to tell if it's brighter than the stock bulb, but it's noticeably whiter. These bulbs are polarity sensitive. So if they don't work, just flip them over and they'll light up. Like others, I want them to have a projector at the top of the light that shines directly onto the lens like other lights do. If they don't produce as much light in use as standard halogen I'll return them and get something else. Edit: After using them for a week, they clearly cast a shadow behind the car with no light coming from above. Pear. I reset the default bulbs and took these back. I would not recommend buying them at all. I ended up buying it as a replacement. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0749G3M4Y/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
