My brake lights aren’t bright enough

The knob is considered an impediment to controlling the steering wheel.
They are common on forklifts and were popular many years ago on power steering cars.
I’ve heard them called by a few slang names….Necker Knob, Suicide Knob, etc.

Last week I went by @Kern Dog's Mopar Restoration Shop and painted the taillight housings on the Coronet.

Before reinstalling, I washed and waxed the rear panel and applied fresh dum-dum (3M strip caulk) to all the mounting holes.

The R/T housings have a plastic divider between the tail/brake lights and the reverse light. It only goes in one way.

So here it is: brake & taillights on; after painting on the (L); before painting on the (R).

Taillights only; after on the (L); before on the (R).

I think the difference is more noticeable with both brake and taillights on. Not as dramatic improvement as Greg achieved with Jigsaw.

The top two pictures show the lights at their brightest. I’m looking at the pictures on my phone though so maybe they load differently than when seeing them on a computer?
I can tell the difference though. It has the same bigger glow as I got with my car.
Score!

And they're incandescent bulbs. With the white background, they're brighter than the tower LED's that I just removed.
