Flossin'
As you know I got a new ride.  So what's next?  Mods.  Changing out tail lights for LED versions.  Just making it different and original.  Oh wait.  Did I say my ride?  Sorry.  What I meant was Hannah's ride.
When Patti came to visit for her book signing I followed them to Jack in the Box.  I noticed Hannah's center brake light, 3rd brake light, novelty brake light, or whatever they call it was burnt out.  I remembered a chat I had with Dean where he mentioned they can't ticket you for it, but they can pull you over "as a courtesy" to let you know it's out.  In my life I have discovered the less I've gotten pulled over, the better.
So as soon as I got home I went online searching for the bulb size.  And after checking a few places I discovered it's pretty hard to find out that bulb size.  I can find almost anything on the internet, but the bulb size for a stock brake light?  No such luck.  
After a while I ran across something way better than the bulb size.  (I never did find it.)  A website had an LED strip that fit right where the stock one went.  She already has the LED brake lights so I thought it would be perfect.  And guess what?  It was.  
Literally took 10 minutes to install.  That includes installing it upside down originally.

Yes, I know the car is dirty.

I bet you wish your wife were that dirty. Thank you love.
Hey - you stole my line!!!
I love it - I think if I'm going to keep my car as long as I think I will I'd like to start tricking it out a little...
Yes, in Orlando they CAN ticket you for a burned out lite. My student got one on her way to clinical. She got it fixed the next day and the judge dropped it from over $260 to $140 something.
Warning, my a**!

In Louisiana, you are only required to have a brake light on the right and left side of your vehicle.......we still pull people over because they do not know any better.......hehehehe.......
