Default Light Bulb Numbers

'77 XJ6L
Does anyone know the bulb numbers for:
Back-up lights (white ones on the trunk, it's a long one almost like an interior light)
Side Markers
License Plate

Also, in case anyone needs it and finds this on searching (Sylvania LED #'s A denotes Amber, R denotes Red. I run Reds in brakelights, but white in Turns/Running lights.)
Taillight/Brake: 1157/2357
Rear Turn Signal: 1156
Front Turn Signals: 1157/2357
Interior: DE3423

Dont run whites in your turn signals. Get amber bulbs and be cool. Otherwise you’re up to speed.

For Backup lights I found some 72 element LEDs, almost as bright as the Sun!

1440LM-LED-72 element
There is NO problem seeing what's behind you with these puppies!


You can see how Bright they are! About a Bazillion candlepower.
Because, out here in the Stix it's DARK and I need to SEE what's behind before I back into it.
Not only that, even in a parking lot in the daylight, others need to see that I'm in Reverse.
These don't protrude beyond the fixture so there's no interference with the lens.

Also some 15 element LEDs for tail lights, but they aren't nearly so dramatic.
