Led's installed

Got some pics and got a vid to show the brightness/instant on of the LEDs. The RX7 has LED's in the 4 red lights and tag lights (in the vid you can see the difference of the LED vs Regular bulb with the third brake light)
The protege5 has the tag lights and reverse lights. You can also see the brightness against the garage door of my front ambers in the rx7

Anybody else running LED's in their 7? i know so far in order to make all the big bulbs fit i have had to trim all the housings and the front ambers were a huge pain due to the reflective piece in the light. The tag lights also seem to be wired backward (can any one confirm this i know this car has been previously wrecked) so i had to swap 12v/grnd on the harness to make the LED's come on.
