It is completely normal. Turn your p[arking lights on and it's not as noticeable. It's just something with the LEDs they used I believe but whatever it is, it's completely normal and not even that noticeable. I think because they are new to you that your looking closely and inspecting the tails but an average person probably wouldn't even notice that little less as hella bright->hella brighter effect they do.

I wouldn't worry of it or try changing them out just because of that but if you want to mess with them, use my how-to on how to open them safely.

LOL, that clicking noise is the built-in heavy duty flasher. It's there so you don't get the annoying 'rapid flash' often found with using LEDs as a replacement for your incandecent bulbs.
