Styling radio button - not work in IE and Firefox

I have tried to make own style of radio button. Everything works well in Chrome, but in IE and Firefox there are still some display errors.

Here is the code:

HTML

<input type="radio" id ="light" name="choice" value="none""><label for="light">Light me</label>

CSS

input[type="radio"] {
appearance: none;
-webkit-appearance: none;
-moz-appearance: none;
background:url('http://refundfx.com.au/uploads/image/checkbox_empty.png') center center no-repeat;
background-size: 2em;
width: 2em;
height: 2em;
cursor: pointer;
vertical-align: middle;
}​

What is wrong?

Thanks a lot for answers.

Try this out: jsfiddle

What you need to do is hide the radio button and only use the label for toggling it. So, I set input[type="radio"] to display:none, and moved some of the CSS to the label selector or a new selector for the button, to which I gave the class 'button':

HTML:

<input type="radio" id ="light" name="choice" value="none"">
<label for="light">
<span class="button"></span>
Light me
</label>​​​

CSS:

input[type="radio"] {
    display:none;
}
.button {   background:url('http://refundfx.com.au/uploads/image/checkbox_empty.png') center center no-repeat;
    background-size: 2em;
    width: 2em;
    height: 2em;
    float:left;
}
label { 
    cursor: pointer;
    line-height:32px;
}
​

Here's a good walk through of stylizing inputs with CSS: http://www.wufoo.com/2011/06/13/custom-radio-buttons-and-checkboxes/
