i had a thought about fitting them inside some plastic tube and moulding it into the bellypan

i also have some old mirrors that are abit worse for wear and thought of seeing if i could countersink them into the back of them..

they also do brake lights but i can't find any amber ones to use as indi's..

Amber ones http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/190698057441? ... 1423.l2649 I have them siiting in my ebay from ages ago.I was considering them at one stage. I still might when I sought my tail tidy out.

thanks for the link carl..i looked for them on their site but couldn't find them...i'll have to dig the old mirrors out and see if their deep enough to inset 2 lamps in each.

those kits look great chric but the others are rear nut mounted which would make it easier for me to slide them into plastic tube then cut n shape to mount onto the bellypan...if i do it right it'll look like the bellypan was made with them fitted

i'm also going to cut the front off my old mirrors to see if i they're deep enough to fit some amberones in there too

i have a pair of mirrors that i've fitted strips of led's to. i can tell you the depth of the inside of the mirror is approx 4cm at its deepest point, if you decide to take the glass out, you will have to get some new mirror glass made to measure, as they're a sealed unit and i've yet to find replacement glass ready to fit, i have to get one piece of glass cut myself, not in any rush atm.

I was thinking about this in the dark driving home last night. I wondered if something small and bright would give cage drivers the impression that you were further away than what you actually are? ?

thats a valid point
but personally. i think its better that they register that your actually there, than worry about how far away you are...just my opinion like...
