I've just tinted my rear clusters with tint spray. I've got them nice and black but i've found a problem with the brake lights in that in direct sunlight they hardly show up! I went to my local car shop but they said they dont do halogen stop lamp bulbs and the only option they had was a 100W bulb! which there is no way i want to fit on a 10A fuse at 12v u only can have a total of 120W anyway so 2 100W bulbs would be no good! and 100W will either melt the wires, the clusters or both anyway! has anyone had this problem and found a better solution? cause for the moment i've had to put my old clusters back on! LOL

You can get a brake light that is made up of a cluster of leds, these are claimed to be bright although I've no experience of them.
