better bulbs for black out 07 s550 taillight

hi guys this is my first post on this forum,but anyway I just blacked out my taillights on my 07 s550 and got pulled over the next day(cop said he couldn't see the brake lights)so I was wondering is there a light bulb replacement for the taillights that I can put to make the light brighter?I was thinking maybe if I get the new 2010 lights and black them out will it be the same outcome(as far as seeing the light better)since the new ones are LED?

You shouldn't have done it so dark in the first place? I have mine tinted with film so if anything I can just remove it easy.

Your rear tails are LEDs are they not? LEDs are pretty bright... Check up the violation code for whatever the cop gave you and read the code to see if it fits your violation.

I don't like the film look!
Sako no I have the 2007 taillight which are not LEDs I was thinking maybe there's a light bulb I can pop in there that can make the tail light brighter?
