Well, again, it depends. What's your power consumption limit? Size/shape limitations?

Sorry not to get back quicker. Yes the rear light I want would be behind the back glass like a third light. Cant use tail lites for another reason. Dan is the third light led on your site is all I need or do I need a power pak. I want something I can turn on and make a run then turn off. But me being a dumb butt if I was to leave it on a while it would not damage it. Thanks Ron Parker :D







I Might See The Lite But It Aint Over Until I Win

You could run these all day and all night and after a lonnnnng time your battery would run down, is all. The 3rd brake lights on my site are meant to be run off the car's battery and/or electrical system. Just hook it up to any 12-14v source and it'll be fine.

Size and shape limits... I would guess I would mount mine in the space the old headlights were in. Power consumption 5 amps or less would be great. Also a switch to control it. For some reason the switchs seem to be junk today also.HUMMM
Thanks
Frank

Well, what's in the headlamp space now? Some kind of blockoff plate? Can't imagine it's an uncapped "sugar scoop" hole (bad aerodynamics). If it is a blockoff plate, make the necessary hole in it and put that round LED reversing lamp in that I linked to above. Switches off the shelf from most auto parts stores are Chinese garbage (big surprise) these days, but good switches can be had. What kind do you want?

Got your PM about the carburetors (working on it). Was there a separate one about switches and lights?
