Which Red Is Brighter??

I recently picked up some clear side markers for my '00 SE, but haven't installed them yet. They came with amber bulbs for the front, but I've been trying to do some research to find out which style of bulb looks "redder" in the rear marker lamps. I want to do my best to appear legal, even if they're not.

Should I go with the red PolarG 194s, or a red LED-type 194? Any opinions, or experiences??

Thanks in advance!

they both are pretty red, but LED will be much brighter, just make sure you buy a good brand for your LED.

The LED has a better color and the color will not fade. A few too many people have had problems with LED #194s not lasting for me to buy them though.
