Re: What did you do today non-detailing related?
Changed out the backup lights to LED. What a pain getting them in to the socket, had to file it down a bit. Amazon description said 2000 lumen, its probably BS but still pretty bright.

Definitely a unique design on those can see why they were a pain. I just use the standard rectangle LEDs and they worked fine for me

Re: What did you do today non-detailing related?
Just a little PSA - if you car has a bulb check feature, stand behind your car for a while with the car on and make sure it doesn’t light up your reverse lights during the check since they’re LED’s. Especially if they’re 2k lumens, that’s a pretty intense flash to the folks behind you.
I picked up some LED reverse lights for my car; even though they’re the CAN bus light (or whatever they called them) so it doesn’t actually trip a bulb warning, they end up strobing when the car runs the bulb check. For mine it was every minute or 2 they’d briefly “wig-wag”. I think it’s because they take so little voltage to light, when the car runs that trace test signal through it’s enough to light them up.
I debated looking into wiring capacitors in to absorb the little voltage spike, but ultimately decided I just didn’t have-to-have them that badly. I could also just code out the bulb check function, but I’m lazy and like knowing if a bulb has gone out.

Got a cat back dual exhaust setup added to my Tundra today. Sounds great. Mild not crazy loud but can definitely tell it has an exhaust added.
