Now that it is really dark during my commute times, and the 914 is serving as one of my commute car options, AND we just moved into a new rental with a long, narrow, dark driveway I have to back out of every morning, I am thinking about doing some custom additions to the 914 to illuminate my path backwards while in reverse.
Here's my ideas so far:
1) Replace reverse lights in housing with mega-bright directional light
2) Tapping into the wiring, add a new LED light bar between existing license plate lights
3) Tapping into the wiring, add a new LED light mounted in back bumper tow-hook hole
# 1 seems difficult given diffuser. Perhaps there is a good "lightbulb replacement" that is bright enough?
#3 was my favorite at first, because I may be able to make it super stealth, but now # 2 seems like it might be easiest and produce best results.
Sorry, don't have the time or $$$ to source a "OEM rear fog light"
Has anybody tried this?
There are lots of LED light projects lately, so maybe some of those gurus can chime in.
THANKS
