Default reverse lights

I need brighter reverse lights on my 2021 XLT, you can't change the reverse lights that are in it already so looking for recommendations.

The reverse lights on my truck are sealed in the taillights, no way I'm breaking the seal to switch out the bulbs, besides they are already LED I just need more light personally.

How about something like a nice low profile aftermarket fog light spliced into the harness and mounted just below the back bumper?

edit: Yeah, like that link Lemmingcus posted only go with a low profile bright white LED fog light...they've come a long way since 2013...
