Hello All

I recently fitted the LED rear light clusters on my Porsche 997.1 all functions are working brakes, indicators, etc but when switched on the clear oblong lens which is for the rear fogs is dimly lit giving impression that they are on all be it not at full brightness.
See attached image I'm pretty certain all the wiring is correct as it is pretty much plug and use but just want some reassurance that it is correct as recently when I was driving in a multi-storey a fellow driver behind me came up to me and said that he thought my reverse lights were on.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

Which make are the l.e.d lights ? They don't look like dectane ? In the 3 years I have had my 997 gt3 gen1 after fitting dectane rear l.e.d lights they have been brilliant I had all red genuine Porsche rears on when I got my gt3 and could not wait to take them off the rear lights where as bright as candles
