Third Brake Light??
Discussion
Anybody come up with a neat and sympathetic way of adding a third brake light to the S.
As almost everthing on the road has one these days I do sometimes feel a bit vulnerable in the rear, if you know what I mean.
Quite a neat one on the latest MX5's but rather pricey to buy.

[quote=phillpot]This is a Saab unit I bought some time ago with a view to fitting to the Chimaera I owned at the time.
There were a few problems and I never progressed it, not least was having the "nerve" to drill mounting holes just incase it didn't work out!

And this what it looks like fitted if you have got the nerve / stupidity to drill the body work.
I'm realy rather chuffed with that, just wondering how to fill the holes in when Mike asks for it back.

Edited to say, it took a considerable amount of modding to get it to fit.

Could you cut the mountings off and mount it using some silicon sealant, and take the cable in the boot or under the edge of the hood?
No reson why you couldnt do it that way, if you dont mind seeing the cable. They are LED's so very low current, you might get away with a bit flexible PCB ribbon. The Saab unit is a different profile to the S rear deck and needs a fair bit of modding to fit well. I think it looks good though and is very bright.
