Thanks for the compliment bro. The top part was the Turn Signal, Middle was Reverse light and bottom was Parking and Brake light combined. Before When brakes are applied, the bottom part will light up brighter but now it lights up at the top.
Right now I dont have a reverse light, but we will do it today.

hmm... those white led turn signals would get you pulled over and ticketed in Miami, they look way too blue.
I've gotten a ticket for that before.
I don't like it too much. The super bright brake lights and dim parking lights don't look right together.

Yeah I will change the turn signal right away. For the Brake light, arent they suppose to be brighter than the parking light so that you can tell its a brake light not parking light.
