Seriously thinking of a third brake light in my rear window of my roadster, the one that Brattons sells (10 led strip light). I have some logolite LED lights coming soon and notice they are just one wire

I used a repop tail/brake light and fastened it to the back of the trunk. The picture shows the light on the spare tire, I moved it because the wires were interfering with the spare. I just tapped into the existing tail and stop wires and ran a separate ground wire. My set-up uses regular 6 volt bulbs

These LED strips that hook to the back window have a provision so that you can connect them to turn signals. When using them to turn the left half will flash for a left turn, the right half will flash for a right turn. If you do not have turn signals the two separate wires used for the turn indication are connected together. Information should come with the unit.

I have a third brake light strip in the back window of our '31 Chrysler sedan but could not find a suitable place to install one in our '31roadster. Ended up installing Snyder LED replacement bulbs and reflectors in the standard Model A tail light housings. They are very bright, brighter than the strip lights by far and you cannot tell them from the originals. The directional signals also are bright and function well.

Hi fellas, Finished my LED third brakelight today in the rear window. When its activated along with the two LED brakelights gives plenty of red in your face. If I combine it with my new 4 way LED signals will look like the eagle had landed. Quality stuff from Snyders, have it in just 2 days. Thanks again fellas for the replies. Dutie

Dutie,
Did you tie the Logolites into the third brake light for turn signals? I'm considering the same setup. W. Michael |

When I added m third brake light I also installed a Rapid Flash Brake Light Module similar to this one. It flashes ~6 times rapidly then stays solid. A real attention getter. 12v only. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Brake-Attent...item5afc761a9e
