My 3rd Brake Light Solution

[roadhog0]

So I have had this idea for a good year and a half now and finally got of my lazy bum and did something about it! I've been wanting a good 3rd brake light that both stands out when stopping but you can't tell it's there unless you really look. I had been looking around and found exactly what I wanted on eBay for 6 dollars shipped to my door. To me that was a STEAL but Im not complaining. I bought a 90cm red LED strip that was black so it was hard to see that it was there. Wired it in to the brake lights on the back and this is what I got!

It's mounted with double stick tape to the window gasket. Only down side is at night the back window gets lit up a bit but not bad at all. Hope y'all like it!

6 bucks to prevent destruction of our beloved 02's. Priceless! I like the innovation and out of the box thinking.

There's a guy here in the Cincinnati area who used to of those to make a big X on his miatas roll bars. Hard to miss.

I like it. Simple. Could you post a picture of it close up? I am wondering how it looks with the gasket. Thanks in advance.

Thanks

I'll go out and take a picture for ya now!

I love how simple it is and how concealed it is. It was also BIG and pretty bright so I thought it would be better than one of those small Hellas of an E30.

So heres some more pics. You can BARELY see it from the outside when you're close to the car. And then theres a couple of the inside.
