CM400 Tail End. Still working on cool ideas for brake light. Any suggestions? Mini blinkers look good and are very bright.

Since I finally got my brake and turn signals finalized, I figured I'd throw my hat.....er.....ass......into the ring:

Used a universal LED third brake light assembly for the brake/running lights and a set of flushmount side markers for the rear turns. Since the LED bar was a 2-wire hook-up, I had to solder up a dimmer circuit into a small project box, so that when they are feeding off the run circuit, they are dimmer, and get brighter when you hit the brakes. The hardest part about the whole thing was finding an LED bar that matched the dimensions I needed, in order to fill the space, properly.

I used a round LED from Custom Dynamics and a pair of small LED blinkers I found on Ebay:

How did you get the flange to sit flush with the curve of the bump? I'm about to put one in, but I'm afraid it'll stick out like a sore thumb...

The Roc City Cafe tail I used is quite thick ~1/4. I was able to remove enough material to make the bezel sit flat. Just took a few minutes with a Dremel tool and a router bit.

Anybody seen those tail lights that fit straight into the frame, much like bar end signals? I came across them somewhere online and can't find them again. They could work well where I've chopped my subframe short, and them stuff them in there...
