Default Just installed ebay tail lights and v-leds bulbs

After reading many problems people are having with 08+ IS with ebay led tail lights. I decided to give it a shot and result is just PERFECT. No error code, no resistors needed, fitment is alright and it's 10x better than my stock .

Also my v-leds order came in today so I tried them on as well. I'm kinda disappointed at v-leds front map 6k white leds.(http://www.v-leds.com/Exterior-LED-B...-p4481039.html) . They're not as bright as my HK led bulbs (6K as well) but price is almost twice the hk bulbs (http://www.wardenjp.com/1wled78.jpg) .

Another issue with v-leds is I have a very hard to time fit those flank bulbs into the rear mirror vanity lights.

Here few pics:

I like the look of the tails. the only thing is in the shot with the brakes on, they don't look any brighter than with the brakes off. Is that just the picture?
