Corner Light Marker

I have a 94 Sentra and I bought some xenon's for the increased visibility on the side.They look good and all but their not as bright as the Maxima we have.Could this be due to the heavier wiring from the 94 Sentra to the 96 Maxima?Is their anything I can do to make them brighter and more visible?I thought about taking the corner lamp out and cleaning the inside of it, but i'm not sure if that is the problem.Thanks

you shouldnt put white bulbs in turn signals...that being said try this:

find the ground for your light and figure out where it ends up, grounds (imo) are the #1 cause of most electrical problems. get a dremel with a wire brush attachment and just brush the hell out od the ring connector and the bolt head and the metal where its bolted to. (just clean any thing and everything the ground wire touches.) hope that helps. if thats not the problem idk what to tell ya.
