Default Brighter reverse lights

Living in the country I frequently drive in places that aren't lit at night. I've found that the reverse lights on the 2000 A8 are so dim, that I can't even tell if they are on, and I often have to hit the brakes to see where I'm going. Has anyone modified their reverse lights to make the brighter/useable?

Default Re: Brighter reverse lights

I replaced mine two years ago with the 50w halogens that are available all over the place. No apparent fuse or wiring problems (What's that smell? ;-)<ul><li><a href="http://www.truckaddons.com/catalog/subpages/designtech03.htm">One example (just a search result, not an endorsement):</a></li></ul>
