Anybody tried these replacement bulbs? (They simply go in instead of regular tail light bulbs). Do you see a difference in the light and how it turns off/on when you brake?

LEDs for brake lights wont work that well, because the bulbs are facing to the side, not outward towards the rear, LEDs do not have a scattered light area, but just go straight forward. I hear that with LEDs, when you are braking, its the same light output of normal bulbs when they are just turned on (using one filament, where when brake is on, they use both filaments to create the brighter light).
