The resistor in the socket of those LED bulbs are incorrect for you application. You can get the correct resistors and solder it in. As for which resistors... you're gonna need a meter and figure it out.

Explain to me your exact problem. I see that you've got like a 90-93 accord and you've got 194 style LED bulbs, two on each side. Explain to me what the problem is. Say front bulb, rear bulb.

Whoa~! Tell me if I understand you correctly, the front bulbs are fine. The rear bulbs only light dim. And the rear bulbs are lit even when the parking lights are off?

correct.

BTW, i went out to my car today, and it started fine. i kno its prolly not good, but i mean, it cant be any worst then an alarm LED flashing constantly, and these are barely lit, so i think i'll be fine. i did buy regular 194 bulbs today tho, amber of course but i like the look of the LED cuz the bulb is clear, but shines amber, unlike an amber bulb that looks, well, amber of course.
