Default Reverse Lights (bulb size)

Hey guys anyone know the size? Cant seem to find. Tried the manual but maybe I didnt see it.

P21W ?

Thanks!

Have a great company that does lifetime warranty LED lights. Since I got the Light package wanted the LED's for the reverse bulbs and comes with NO dash light. Had them in my RS5 and were awesome. Thanks

Light Design only gives LEDs to the interior and the cargo storage areas, not any exterior lights. But I thought the reverse lamps were LEDs as standard too. If they're not and you try to install them, you might trigger bulb warnings though.

Has anybody found the reverse - rear fog light combo? I would be interested in the search that claims to have found the P21W as a part number for the GT4.

Yup, mine are definitely LED. My understanding is all GT4s have LEDs as the reverse light, unless some earlier builds (summer/fall 2015) aren't, but I doubt it.

It's a 981, so it would be logical for it to share such basic features with the rest of the models which were in production way before the GT4 came to fruition.
