2016 550GT LED Reverse Light Upgrade

Has anyone replaced their original reverse/backup light bulbs with new LED's. I've read you need the LED's with a resistor to eliminate the error codes. Any help finding the replacements would be appreciated. It's a F07 GT 550.

Resistors get hot and do fail time to time

Coding the reverse lights to LED is a better solution to not have bulb errors

bulb type should be similar to F10 which is BA9S
