Hi guys
How many of you have mounted their 3 rd brakelight into rear panel and which unit have you used any help highly appreiciated tried most motor factors found nothing suitable thinking about pug 206 light any thoughts or links anything to help

The third brakelight would normally be more visible mounted in the roll bar.

Maybe the visibility thing would be better but i would prefere in back panel not too keen on roll bar choices for a light either

I've got my first two brake lights on the back panel already - a third one on the panel wouldn't be much higher, if at all. I did consider the rollbar but it looked like a bit of a fag (Note: I'm not American ) to do the wiring etc. Rescued attachment 2006-09-17 3 ST rear.JPG

Have a look at the unit from the mk1 MX5 - mounted flush in the boot.

That's what I'll be looking at installing on mine (I'd like it on the roll bar, but mine's a race rollbar, and I don't want a. wires cable tied to the bar and b. can't drill holes as it'll make it unfit for racing)

£!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Try www.mx5parts.co.uk - same thing for half the price (still pricey, but it's the little touches that make the cars in my opinion)

Roll Bar mounted one from S.V.C i belive they also do one you can flush into the back panel, like the idea of it on the roll bar as its a lot higher than the back panel and about eye height of any one behind!

Managed to thread the cable though the roll bar for my 3rd stop light , had to make up some mounts for it in a lathe . Sorry don't have any photos
