I used these and they work great.

I've been very happy with everything I've bought there so far, and I have almost every bulb in LED now. The other "cheaper" bulbs don't work well in our housings, they only have LEDS firing straight out. The V-LEDs and a few other brands have LEDS in all directions that work well with the reflectors in our tail lights. Expensive, but worth it. There's a nice conversion chart and good spec info on what they sell too.

Yes, they're worth it. The $10-$15 dollar bulbs aren't even as bright as the stock bulbs. These are brighter than stock. $25.00 each is a lot, but you'll never need to replace them. There is no bulb out indicator in our trucks other than the fast flashing of the turn signals when you use these. Load resistors will solve that problem.

The reverse lights also provide some illumination when the car is backing up. Reverse lights on a vehicle must be white in color, and these come standard on all vehicles.
Bulbs that provide light at around 3000K to 3500K may be considered "white" or "soft white." Bulbs that provide light at around 4100K to 5000K are considered "cool white" and these start to have a slightly blue feel to them. if you want to more knowledge about light smartgeekhome is the best place for about your question.
At the other end of the scale, cool white lighting emits a brighter, more vibrant light that's more toward the blue end of the colour spectrum. They appear closer to daylight than a warm white bulb. They're best suited for the busier and more lively areas of the home where you need something a bit brighter.

Help
I recently replace the tag light bulbs in my 2007 Tahoe with led bulbs. They are a bright pure white color/ Does anyone know of a bulb for the reverse lights that is pure white rather than the yellowish color they are now, to match the tags. From looking online the back up lights are 7441 and I have not been able to find a led in that number
