brakelight in spoiler mod

[stingman123 0]

Hi all,

 

i'm really fancying gving this a try, but not too sure where to start!!!???

 

I've got a spare rear spoiler, but I think what I'll need is a suitable brake light and the ability to mould it into the spoiler, then prim paint etc...

 

Has anyone done this and got pics? Part no's?

 

even iff you went to a bodyshop and got it done thats fine, let me know who they were

 

TIA

An easier option would be to get a USA spec boot lide where there is the brakelight built in...

Err, surely not? I think finding and then importing one will be much more of a hassle.

Yeah but he marked all those holes himself, got a machine shop to drill the spoiler on a pillar drill and then fitted all the LEDs - no small job.

 

If you get the holes in the wrong place or angle when using LEDs it will look terrible as they won't all have the same light intensity.

Thanks for the replies,

 

Yan, do you know where he got this done? I've sent a PM but no reply as yet....

 

TIA

Nobody?

 

I think this would look pretty good, I've looked at the US spec model but having no joy ATM, surely someone else has done this mod?

I don't know where he got it done but it was a local machine shop IIRC.

no, you just cut a hole in the tailgate and fit the VW light, that's all Karmann did,it's a pretty nasty afterthought IMO doesn't look great in the flesh

 

I just got one of these off e-bay: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... 0534654388

for 6 quid delivered it's pretty neat, won't be using it's legs to stick to the window though, just planning on using the LED array in the tailgate top trim like kev's done.
