Default LED tail light mod

a while back my wife picked out a new tail light for her bike. i think its a drag specailties LED. well the 3157 led bulb is weak. after looking at taillights that are led online i went by a local truck supply store and found a VERY bright LED that has 11 different strobe settings for $45 with tax. i had to dremel out an opening in the back of the tail light housing and it still has the stock LED bulb.
tell me what you think.

heres a link to what type of light i used.
http://www.maxxima.com/products/prod...obe/view/.html

it has 4 wires red, black, yellow and white (unused). the yellow wire is used to change the strobe setting when connected to 12v+ for less than 3 seconds. it also has a steady on if you dont want a strobe. i will get some pics of the install shortly.

the video dosen't do it justice. between the brightness and strobing its down right annoying which is what we were looking for.
