yes, this helps a lot. Ask wuzin, i think he has been using it and is able to see using his nav screen.

I only have installed LED license plate bulbs, and it's bright enough to see back up cam pictures in the night.
I didn't install LED reverse bulbs, but tired. (and yes, it gave me an error message.)
to be honest, I had/have better back up cam pictures with stock reverse bulbs,
LED bulbs are pure white (if I compare to stock one), but wasn't brighter than stock one, and it was very dim.

I also have the LED license plate bulbs and LED backup bulbs. No errors from either. These are the V2 HIGH OUTPUT versions. The backup bulb has 32 LEDs on it. I replaced only one backup bulb to test stock vs LED and found the LED whiter and brighter. It has made it considerably easier to see objects in my backup camera at night.
