Default saw an interesting mod tonight

it was on a 6th gen sedan...the 3rd brake light, instead of just going on as usual with application of the brake, it blinked like a turn signal when pressing the brakes...just thought i'd toss that out for u guys to think about...haven't really thought bout whether it was good or bad...def unique...prolly better, b/c draws more attention to the braking (thus, safer)

They've got stickers on eBay that you put over your 3rd brake light and it lights up "Honda" or "Accord".

The angel eyes idea. . . on tail lights? I'll pass.

I think some GM vehicles do that so that it catches peoples attention when you are breaking. I don't know if it stops more people from rear ending it, but I think that is the idea behind it.

I was thinking about putting a "CB7tuner.com" sticker on the glass right over my 3rd brake light. I guess I'm not that original! h:
