Revainrating 5 out of 5

Does not work in new GM vehicles!

Phinlion 921 912 LED Backup Light I have a 2020 Buick Enclave, my buddy has a 2019. Installing these LEDs in a car at the dealership is $58. The dealer's technician wanted to know if they would work and how. My buddy really wanted it so we installed them in his 2019. They worked great as a backup light and were much brighter than the original. HOWEVER, we then found that the info center was now speaking/displaying Spanish! There was no menu to go back and switch to English. His 2019 required a full reboot of his main computer system. Then the dealer tech did some serious research and found that GM now measures the voltage and resistance in the headlights and you need to use a trained dealer to replace bulbs like reverse lights AND you need to use dealer parts (bulbs in this case). . The technician also recognized my 2020. Buick would need a main computer module replacement, not just a reboot. Result; Be very careful with new cars as manufacturers seem to "block" modifications or maintenance by the owner. Hope this helps others. Oh yes, Revane said they fit. You make a wise greatness. They are not electronic.
