So I was browsing CarDomain, found something neat, thought I'd share.
Link here http://www.cardomain.com/ride/480134/20 ... der/page-2

Basically a printed overlay that goes over the brake light. I think I want to do it too!

Some people reported gains of 7-8hp. It's worth a try.

you forgot about me damnit :poke: lol! well i actually ended up taking mine out. I had a hard constructing type paper cut out at first and after a couple months of the sun baking it up it started to look like crap. I then had one made from a vinyl sticker and the sun baked that up too and it started chipping an flaking off inside the case and it looked all whitish so that was the end of that

mine is suffering from that but i put it on well enough for it to bake onto the plastic and it still looks fine.

I was under the impression that you had to have an available 5HP/2ft-lb before adding this mod in?

kidding aside... i need to fix my 3rd brake light before I attempt something like this. when I went to change my bulbs i found a few tabs broken. :facepalm:
i know the stickers don't need to be supported by the tabs or whatnot, but I just want it to be "healthy" before I start throwing "fun-stuff" on it.

no, but the tabs that hold the bulbs in place seem to be cracked and broken, making the bulbs a little "crooked" when it's activated. Meaning, some bulbs are lower than others and pointed in different directions and does not create the straight horizontal line across.

ok ok, sorry.
what's the official name for it?
High Mounted Center Brake Light or something like that? :chuckle:
