DIY: Rear rotor light

Easy mod.

Trace rotor on to paper on the rear bar. cut and trace onto perspex.
Drill a hole in the center of the rear to fit a bulb.
Drill perspex at 3 points and follow on into bumper.
Use 3x100mm screws, screw and secure it with bolts.
Run bulb up to one of the rear lights.
If your using a twin globe, then hook up all 3 then you'll be getting
parkers and brakes working it.
If not, like me, and your using single globe, you'll get only one,
in my case, parkers.
Total cost: 12.50 AU

Cheers,
Tuan.

I love mods like these...cheap and easy, Great Job and thank you!

paying an arm and a leg for a rear foglight from mazda that doesn't even fit in my car (I have the rear rotary accent and intend to keep it) is pointless...thus I will design something like this using a very simple LED array
