Both are rubbish compared with the one we recommended. The better one you look at is 2.5W. The one the rest of us bought is 8W.

Are the 8W lights white or is there a blueish tint? Just to confirm, the same 8W LEDs can be used for both Parking and Reverse lights with no fitment issues?

The 8W lights come i either 6000K or 5000K and the color is pretty accurate. Any tint would come from the highbeam. e.g. if you had a blue high beam bulb, that would tint the light from the led.
