Hello peeps, whos got a rear window stop light? whats the best one to get? easy to fit? pics would be cool.

[captainjack15]

*cough* search.

Like a high level one?

I have one, but haven't got round to fitting it as I dont actually drive the mini much anymore

But having 2 people crash into the back of me in the mini both within 6 months, I suggest you do put it on!!

Not a prob in my pickup. Jupitus just added a circuit when he was building the new loom
and I'm sure he can explain how to weave one into an existing loom.
The extra stop lamp was an Xmas pressie but I'm guessing Halfords?

Havn't got one in my current mini though (really should get round to getting one).
Brought mine off eBay, IIRC it was about £20, nice and easy to fit- two piggy back connectors in the boot and peel off the sticky pads and place it in the window- just make sure its in the middle, lol.

I’ve got one, although were I’ve fitted it isn’t as easy as if it were on the parcel shelf.


Wiring couldn’t be easier all you need is to tap off one of the rear light clusters; driver’s side is easiest to get to for the live fee to the brake lights and an earth.

I have one, but haven't got round to fitting it as I have locked my mini away in a dark, damp garage and have forgotten about him

Cheers guys for your info. Is there one that spells MINI ? think i have seen one or it might be in a dream/nightmare or a long thin line of red dots at the top of the window would be good. I think its a must to have one as most cars on the road are 4x4's with the eyeline 2 feet above our roofs!!


thanks also to capt jack, err i did search and got a load of carp, with no pics and no one to chat about their favorite type. But thanks for you very small input.....and get some benelyn for that "cough"

[captainjack15]

You probs got a load of *rubbish* when searching, because you haven't read the FAQ? Which explains how the search works and you can, if done the correct way can show the right results
My cough is all better thanks Cheers for tip anyways

yep have read it and its still poop, if i wanted to read something that was posted 6 months ago i would use the search or if i wanted to find something about the engine i would use the search....but i am asking for peoples preferances and pics and up to date info, so unless you have any of those regarding window stop lights then i think its best if you go back to silly chat.........
