The new S550 Mustang brought plenty of new modern styling with its new redesign. Throughout the whole vehicle, Ford incorporated tons of modern styling and materials including LED lighting. We were almost shocked to see the non-LED lighting used in the reverse lights.

We were even more shocked to see this when we realized just how easy it was to install LED reverse bulbs in our 2015-17 Mustang. Nonetheless, we wanted to share this simple installation because we found that these LED reverse bulbs not only add to the modern look but they also improve visibility at night without breaking the bank!

Required Tools:

  • None !!

2015-17 Mustang LED Reverse Light Install:

  1. Start by locating the license plate blubs on the back side of the bumper. You can either reach behind the bumper or lay under the bumper to locate them.
  2. Once they are located, rotate the bulb socket counter clockwise and remove from the light cover.
  3. Remove the bulb and replace it with the LED blub.
  4. If the blub does not work remove it and rotate it 180 degrees and reinstall.
  5. The bulbs have to be installed in the correct orientation or they will not light up.
  6. Align the connector with the light cover and rotate clockwise to install the new LED bulb.
  7. Step back and enjoy the new brighter lights.

This simple 15 minute installation will easily add a more modern lighting option to your 2015-17 Mustang.

Ford finally hit the nail on the head and upgraded those dingy yellow license plate lights to a more modern, cool white light. Even with adding the popular, European-style reverse light, they decided to throw in a run-of-the-mill halogen bulb. No worries. We have you covered with one of our LED light conversion kits. We offer a direct replacement LED bulb for your 2015 Mustang's reverse light. This LED bulb will offer better nighttime visibility and a modern look to match the license plate lights. This should take no more than five minutes of your time. So let's go ahead and show you how effortless this is.

Start by reaching underneath your bumper and locating the reverse light connector. Rotate the connector counterclockwise, and remove it from the light socket. Then go ahead and pull out your factory halogen bulb. Take your new LED bulb, and go ahead and place it in the socket. If the bulb does not illuminate, no worries. Just flip the orientation, since LED bulbs will only light with the correct electrical polarity. Once you have your LEB bulb in the light socket, with the LED bulb installed, go ahead, place the light connector back into the reverse light socket, rotate clockwise, and you're done.
