HID reverse lights

Has anyone tried this? I'm thinking about giving it a shot since I now have an extra set of 6k bulbs and some ballast laying around.

There have been a few users to put different bulbs in their reverse lights to make them much brighter.

There's a company local to me that sells HID bulbs that fit common reverse light sockets.
