How to override BootStrap CSS checkboxs and input checkboxs - css

Question

I am having a problem over-riding the bootstrap css for checkboxes and input checkboxes. I have a checkboxlist and the bootstraps styling is over-riding my own css file. I have doubled checked and made sure that it wasn't bootstraps themes causing the issue but it is the bootstraps css.
I have also tried using !important
in my css and it still gets over-ridden, I even placed my css file after the bootstraps css, tried putting my css before it, even tried
input[type=checkbox]
and that did nothing as well.
Here is the css I'm trying to use to override the bootstrap
.CheckBoxSubjects td {
border-style: solid;
border: 1px solid #78E389;
width: 122px;
height: 27px;
border-radius: 5px;
background-color:#78E389;
}
