Question. When you unclip the bulb holder and activate the lights, does the bulb look dim, or is the lens making the bulb look dim?

Meaning, if you looked at the bulb outside of the housing, is the bulb still dimmed? If so, sounds like you have a wiring problem not related to the taillight lenses.

If not, the problem is in the lens. Go back to DOT/SAE stamped lens and see the difference.
