Well I decided to get rid of them. I might try a different pair of red bulbs before I give up and go back to amber or a 1/2 amber 1/2 chrome (chrome-dome) from autolumination.

I tried chrome-looking amber bulbs (they were from stealthauto.com) and they were very dim, so I'd be careful with that route.
Perhaps there are different stealth bulbs that are brighter, but the ones I tried were not good. I got rid of them very quickly.
No idea how good the autolumination bulbs are but the reputation of their products is not too reassuring.

I also have not heard good things about Autolumination. I tried them once and they were crap bulbs.
For those looking at replacement bulbs. Be wary of 7440 bulbs with dark gray/black plastic bottoms. Those bulbs seem to have ill-fitting plugs and don't work that great. Read this in multiple places online. The chrome autolumination bulbs have those bottoms.
The only good chrome bulb I have read about is the PIAA mirror chrome bulbs. The RX-8 owners that have used them have given them good marks. One person said they were brighter than stock. But they tend to be pricey at $30 something before shipping.
I may try them...
