Horrible reverse lights

For those of us that have a night edition, do you find your reverse lights severely lacking or is it just me?
 
I have the non led version and I believe that they are tinted. Was wondering if someone has swapped to led bulbs and if it was any better?
 
This is my solution mainly just for plowing though

I got a set of LED replacements on Amazon. They are much better, but not quite as good as i'd like. My old jeep had a pair of 6" led bars in the rear bumper tied to the reverse lights. you could see better going backwards than forwards out of that thing.
 
Those Baja Designs lights look like they work great. I like how low profile they are. The output seems really similar to the mirror mounted lights. @Ewoodard You asked about night edition reverse lights. I'm not sure what trim level you have, but my Laramie Night Edition has lights mounted on the rearview mirror. There is a button next to my fog light button to toggle them on and off. Here's a picture with them on:

Thanks! It's a 2020 Laramie. Just to be clear, the light is coming from the mirror but I took the picture from outside the truck. Through the tint it looks a little darker.
 
Changed out the reverse lights from Headlight Revolution, big difference. Still not quite what I was looking for especially when working with the trailer of boat at night. My solution is below, a pair of Black Oak 40W flood lights, outstanding! Drilled 4 holes and cut with a jigsaw, primed and painted the bare edges to keep the rust out. Ran a wire to the aux box so I could control the lights when I wanted and if needed.

Couple pics attached, one during the day and the other at dusk.
