Yes, they are quite a bit brighter than the halogens.
Bio, the GP is the first cr I've driven where the stock lights dont help you while in reverse. They don't just have a sole purpose of letting people see you.
I agree with you on my 07 GP we have these sort of crappy LED lights but they are very bright and super white and do light the back wall when backing up, later when we got the money we might install better LEDs.
