Removing the cover makes it a little brighter.

You can't just remove the bulb and put an LED in, though.
What you can do is get an LED strip or a couple leds and wire it to the existing footwell light wires.

Hey - I have an 08 TL-S and used 2x 12" red LED strips (but from a different seller) to make the underdash lights brighter. I just spliced them in to the stock single led on the driver and passenger side.

These look comparable to mine: http://www.ebay.com/itm/2x-12-Flexib...c17111&vxp=mtr

Here's a couple cell phone pics of mine:
