Default Re: Model A Brake Lights

I just used Velcro for now to mount it teh brake strip to the tailgate, ran the wiring over to the existing stop/tail wiring and cable tied everything up. Wired it into the teacup tail/stop lamp. Just wanted to mount it quickly without drilling holes to try it. Wish the 3rd brake light also had a tail light in it. Will be permanently mounting it next year. I added clear tubing over the wiring to protect the wiring.


For very rare night driving, I have a farm implement magnetic base battery yellow LED light that I put on the Tailgate, put a very thin piece of vinyl over the magnets so it does not scratch/mar the paint. It can be selectable for flashing or constant on. It is very bright at night. Available on line or at Farm and Fleet/Tractor Supply, might find something suitable at Walmart.


I prefer it lower and on the back of the A in others line of sight.. Have been behind As with the 3rd brake light in the windows. Did not think it was as noticeable.
