LED bulbs only give off light when u look right at them straight on, and dont reflect around the light like normal bulbs do
get some normal red/orange ones and dip them in silver paint, thats what i do

i just bought some of those LED rear tail lights, and they look so good. Very deep red, perfectly visible, and wont fade. Only problem is now my brake lights look orange in comparison, so i got to buy some more!

You shouldn't even need to modify the clear lenses.

the LED cluster bulbs i bought didnt fit into the rear cos the bulbs were too wide for the size of the hole. I just used a lighter to melt the plastic until it just fitted through, took about 2 minutes!
