3rd break light

here is a link to something I found on ebay and thought was a good idea so I made my own instead. I can give a detailed instruction of the project if someone is interested or you can just purchase this from ebay for about $17. I made my own for about 20 cents. I know cheap *** but hey I was bored and curious. I just wanted to see if it would look good. It looked so good that I just kept it. If interested let me know I can take pics of it. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Nissa...37595670QQrdZ1

you think that might be gay or crazy you should see the led displays with custom phrases that scroll across the screen. you can input those too. trust me it's all on taste. whether it's for you or not. Mine says Pimpin with a symbol of money on both sides. will take a pic later and post.

I like it, I just added a new spoiler w/ light, and I was thinking of getting rid of the 3rd light, but now i'm thinking about the word " MAXIMA "

How did you make it.

Thanks

Isnt is a federal law that you have to have a 3rd brake light? Obviously cars from the 70's and 80"s are exempt, but I thought that it was needed for inspections now-a-days. I could be wrong....

You misunderstood me, The new spoiler I put in ( not pictured yet ) comes with a light, this would make it 4 lights.

3rd being the light in the rear window and the fourth being the light in the spoiler.

That being said, I was going to get rid of the 3rd light ( Nissan sells a special cover ), instead I want to have the word Maxima show on the 3rd light.

I think that wouldlook cool. Ebay already sells it.
