Maybe I am wrong, but my rudimentary understanding of science and color, a 
white led would be brighter than an equivalent red or colored one.  

I have white under my green turn signal lens and it works fine.  The only 
reason I can think of to use a red led is the white is so much brighter it 
would shine through the lens and make it look pale.
