Dave, I've done the same as you with a 12V neg ground conversion. I'm using a 50W, 6 ohm resistor at each LED tail light. The results are acceptable and what I would call "normal". Same Signal Stat system. Sound like mine are wired just as you describe --- one end to the turn signal wire and the other end to ground. Maybe add a little resistance -- 6.5 ohms isn't much.
