has anyone done the rear light modification?
I read on elises.co.uk that you could mod the clusters to light up both 'rings'?
Anyone done this?

yeah, did on my 111R, it worked a treat, a bit fiddly though. I bought a couple of spare short harnesses from a dealer (he called them rats tails? £15), this gave me the additional bulb holders and I just piggy backed onto the existing leads. The fuse had to be uprated though, as 10A could not handle reverse/brakeand tail at the same time.
The light clusters can very easily be adapted, just drill out the other hole with a hole saw bit on a drill, and then with a needle file clean up the little lugs. They are there in the casting, but just not put through. finally a bit of a clean up on the bulb holder lugs and jobs done.

Easy.

Dont suppose it does much for the warranty though. I have not yet done it to my current Liz, but it is on the list of things to finish.
