yup those will work for the taillights but not the worklights. and thats what i have for the taillights cept mine are red.

for the revese/worklights you will need like a 194 base like these 2 V-LEDS WHITE 194 13 LED LIGHT BULBS 158 168 2825:eBay Motors (item 230407314551 end time Jan-02-10 00:22:43 PST) thse will work. the one i had gotten insted of just 2 rows on each side mine have 3 rows. and yes you will need a switch.

Chuck,

If the work lights call for a 912 or 921 bulb, wouldn't these be the LED replacements...

My 09 500ho has solid red tail light lenses so I can't add the work light mod.
We just got snow today so I hooked up the plow and once I start plowing in the dark I'm going to need some sort of work/backup light. Any suggestions?

Just order the lenses from a 08 which has the clear lenses in one side then install the bulbs and the switch .

Provided that the wiring is there. If they don't have the lens for the light, they probably didn't wire for it.

Not a big deal, it should be easy to run the wires and tap into a power wire.

From what I've been reading, they have cheapened up a number of things on the 09' & 10' models. I guess it's a sign of the times and the economy.

i wouldnt go with them. id go with more side emitting just becuse it will fill the lense reflector better. you can try it but ill bet it wont be as bright. but i could be wrong. i just know i like the led bulbs i have.
