LED Reverse lights (whats the best?)

I have been reading on and on, doing searches. I read people replacing their reverse lights they are very "white" but do not put out enough light to see where you are going at night and I read the opposite. So Im getting mixed messages. What is the best LED replacement to project light so it will assist the rear camera and your own eyes to see better when backing? and will fit the rear light housing. I have 2012 G37 sedan. I see its a 921 bulb.
Thanks!

V-Led over iJDMTOY any day ... I didn't have a great track record with them. Their 6K bulb deffinately have a blue tint. While it's not a hard install it's not something you want to do every 6 months either. More folks here go with V-LED and are happy. Your choice at the end of the day though.

I've seen those on Ebay. Do you have pics of video clips of them on your car?
