Me like iiiit! Installed the SMT 5 LEDs 6k from v-leds.com yesterday. I'm about to light up the strip now...let see how it will look. I'll post pics. By the way, shipping from V-LEDs very fast, like I place the order and 15 minutes later I got an e-mail for the shipping and even though I chose ground, it took 2 days to get here in FL.

It's all in the angle you're looking at the light from... there aren't really any reflectors inside the bumper light, and since LEDs are more of a direct light, no simple replacement LED bulb is going to light up the entire thing, especially with the way the bulb is angled inside the housing. That's why aftermarket LED bumper light kits have a row of LEDs all across.
There are bulbs with LEDs pointed in every direction that you can try, but I guarantee it's going to be exactly the same thing, maybe a bit brighter though.
And if those aren't enough LEDs for you, you can try to squeeze these in...

I think I've already tried them both and they turned out to be exactly the same thing.

Thanks for the links to the xHP6s, it's exactly what I was looking for for my clear corners. What should I use if I want to light up my whole clearance strip (same thing or should I go with something like WLED-x5)?
what bulbs are you using for your plate? I want the same output

The eBay link to the marker lights doesn't work, but I'll go ahead and assume the problem is you bought some cheap a$$ eBay clear corners. What it looks like from your picture is the back end of the clear corner is diamond cut, but the actual lens is clean as glass... thus not letting the LED disperse light as it should.
Get yourself some NISSAN Clearcorners, and you'll see a crazy difference.

Yes, you got some garbage a$$ clear corners. Let me guess, they also condensate every time you wash your car?

I did have The Wleds Hp5 in I belive that it was 5500k..I actually took these bulbs out because these bulbs would interfere with my radio,I would always get static on my radio if i used my lights.I currently have Wled x5 in my license plate right now.I like it plus it doesnt mess with my radio either..Its totally up to you man,I wouldnt recommend them they were fine at first but then I had second thoughts..I do have a pic of the wleds x5 they are almost close to the color of the factory hids at 4300k..A clear crystal white,
Its with a Iphone the quality sucks.
