I have white bulbs from polarg in my AP2 taillights. It honestly makes it look 100x better. Sometimes after I get home, I turn the engine off and put the car in reverse just to admire the lights.

Doubtful, those PnP LED lights are usually terribly dim compared to a standard bulb because the light of an LED is so point focused
