WHo makes a nice looking third brake light for the bugs?

I picked up an LED light bar that sits inside the rear window. I got it from AutoZone.

I too want to get a third brake light and add this- http://www.webelectricproducts.com/blp/blp153.gif

I got mine from JC Whitney. Not the best quality, but I drive a '58 everyday and wanted to give a bit more warning to followers. I also had to build an extension out of wood to make it tall enough...

Those are pricey but I like the idea.

my dad uses one of those on his speedster. very good quality.

I'll vouch for the Lereyn and pulser. With tinted rear window, you can't see the light strip until the LED's fire. The Lereyn LED strip needs to be heated with a heat gun to adjust the angle so its horizontal when installed in the top beading of the rear window. The pulser is a great attention getter, especially with a fast illuminating LED strip. If you can stop on a dime, both are a great insurance policy.

anyone see one made so it shines through the rear engine vent? or is this a bad idea, because of flow?
|
Yes, I've seen one that was build in the vents under the backwindow. (you have to cut out some metal to even get there.) It was an dutch bug who was driving in front of me at Keverzomerfestijn (2003).

im putting one in my bug, ill post pics when ive finished

I've seen this done without cutting. You just have to find a light slim enough to pass through the vents then fish it through with long screw drivers to your mounting spot.
