Just wanted to thank Demick for the thread on the 3rd brake light. Finally got it installed, works just fine and doesn't hinder my view from the rear view mirror. Great idea thanks again (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif)

Time to resurrect this. I think that StratPlayer (note that I'm a Gibson SG man myself but I don't hold that against him) did a nice job. However, my rearward vision is already impaired by the rolll bar. If the bar was very very thin it might work (1/4" or so). I suppose the light could be mounted on top of the engine cover (like they suggested on the web site) but 914's are so low you really need the light as high as possible.

One option is to find one that mounts flush to the back of the aluminum trim. Of course I want it to blend in so I think I'll need to make one out of aluminum and just drill a bunch of holes to mount the LED's in a row. If anyone knows of one like this let me know. Otherwise I'll update when I get around to to making it (though I've still got a few things higher on the priority list).
