Hmmm...does not compute. I don't see where adding series resistance would work. The LEDs that I got are super bright when tested directly at the 6 volt battery on my '41 but are dim when installed in the brake light socket.
Have not tried running a direct wire ground back to the tail/brake light housing yet but I anticipate that would be a solution for max lumens. The other thought I had is perhaps the hydraulic brake switch has high resistance.
