Third brakelight

[Odd]

Wouldn't a row of 30-40 or so bright red LEDs sitting in the aft looking surface of the top tube in the US style luggage rack be the perfect solution for extra visible brake lights?

I have no spoiler or rolbar, the reardeck is not possible so the only way is right under the boot edge.
I'm searching now for an led strip or so that I can fit but short enough to fit between the licenceplatelights, when I found it I show a picture of it.

frankman, no girls with long hair riding with you!

OK, I have been taking care of my 82 year old Mother since yesterday afternoon, so I have not been able to test the new light. Hopefully, I can work on it tomorrow!

Have fun, drive fast & safe, be kewl,

Also, remember that the Cadillac Allante had an extra Brake light right were our trunk knob is located! You could always put in a manual trunk release and add the light in place of the trunk lock.
