[Nemax]

I recently installed ZL1 door panels with abl on my 1LT. I used the harness from gen5diy and tapped into the switches on the door. The problem is even at brightest setting on the dim switch you can barely see the blue lights.
I read somewhere that the zl1 abl is dimmer than the normal abl lights is this true? Is the light tube aimed the wrong way, whats the right way? Can I install a stronger led with the same color as oem blue? Lastly connect the wire to something else than the door switches, (speaker?)
Would really appreciate any answers / ideas you guys would have.

Thanks
