Who sells a good LED 1157 bulb?

A while back I bought some new 1157 LED bulbs for the tail/brake lights on my 68 and obviously not all LEDs are created equal. By the looks of it regular incandescent bulbs would be brighter. Any recommendations for some good, bright ones?

I'm using these.

Whether you buy them from here,or someplace else, this is the LED configuration you want for good light output and lit appearance similar to the 1157 incandescent.

Don't recall the brand name I got but they had several of the glass bulbs. I'm guessing they put just a couple actual LEDs under the "bulbs" because they suck.

I have tried all sorts of LED's in park-tail-brake lights in my 94 Dakota...they are not all that bright....especially in the daytime...the LED gets washed out by the sunlight

I'm sticking with regular bulbs on the exterior lights
