Really? I guess I never noticed, I'm not usually back there when the brakes are on Does the stock 3rd brake light match well when lit in person to the halos? (The illuminated pictures in this thread are on sites that are filtered to me unfortunately.)

Excellent. I guess this also explains why the 3rd brake light comes slightly before the rest of the stock lights. I think I'll revisit the idea of pushing the halos further up on my mod to-do list.

I love your blue lights under the car. I just added lights to mine, but I have been accused of creating a pimpmobile. I tried the CCFs, but switched to LEDs. I need to add more because I still can't signal the Mothership.

I was going to be a pimp in my younger years, but I was afraid I would eat all the profits. Sorry about that, but I have been waiting 20 years to use that.
