Default Rear Lamp Bulb Replacement with LED’s

Had my rear lamp lenses smoked with tinted clear coat, but they didn’t come out dark enough.



Before I go darker, however, I’d like to up the brightness of the rear bulbs.



Picked up Sylvania 7443 ZEVO LED Bulbs: https://www.oreillyauto.com/detail/b.../4743393?pos=1



But when installed into the lamps, they weren’t any brighter than stock!?



Anyone have any suggestions on what bulbs I should use behind a tinted rear lamps?



Thank you.
