This is still on my to do list to get done but the house list keeps getting in the way.

 

I got a Daihatsu Cuore L7 brake light a while ago (actually have 2 as I didn't expect to win the other one when I bid on it! haha) as i think this looks closest to a stock light and is big enough to be very visible but won't be dazzling.

I bought mine on Amazon.

There are lots of similar ones from different sellers but I think they are all pretty much the same. the metal bracket is a piece of junk meant to mount on a bumper, I threw it away. I mounted it on a piece of 1/2 inch plywood using 2 L brackets and painted it black. It is really close to the window and doesn't leak light around the edges. It is quite bright, it has 3 wires red, yellow and black. Black is -ve red to =ve gives a constant light and yellow to =ve gives a flashing light.

Here are some pics

Just seen this sorry, yeah, will dig the spare one out. I paid £50 for it so if you're happy with that plus postage let me know either way.

 

Unless you wanted to collect from Horsham at some point down the line
