I know that cut-outs have been installed into the 3rd brakelight in the s13 coupes that say "240SX"... but I don't know what model you're talking about or what lights...
There is a website that has a lot of free/cheap mods for the 240sx, but I can't remember it right now. Check google for it... it's 3am, and I couldn't even begin to tell ya what to search for. I don't even know why I'm posting, really. I'm going to bed.

if your talking about doing this for a s14 than....
here you go (http://www.zilvia.net/f/showthread.php?s=&threadid=21055&highlight=tail+lights)
i know the "whole" rear panel isnt lit but its kinda the idea. as for lighting the whole panel i myself havent looked at the panel to know what you would need. i might try to do what the link shows and i would like to see what hte whole rear would look like lit. anyways i hope this helps you.

i was thinking about doing that on my hatch... i'm thinking a 20" stick of white neon should suffice. but i probably won't do it- i'm saving all my car-related energies for sanding and priming.

The middle rear panel on the hatch ( the panel that reads 240SX) is actually painted on the backside. I think it was painted silver or some other reflective color. You would have to polish that paint off before any lights inside would show.

WOOOHOOOO!!!! RICER TOPIC!!!!:p (Sarcasm Intended)
Couldn't you take like a junk taillight assembly and cut the bulb mounts out and um....cut the back of the rear panel and affix the bulb holders to them????:rolleyes: Or maybe just get the rear lens apart from the rest of the assembly and fiberglass the back with the bulb mounts...:rolleyes:

transient chill out...no beef wid you ;)
i you know exactly what constitutes rice.. however, calling me ratrded has no basis at all. do u know my IQ?.. do u know how if i'm smart or not. i was calling him rice b/c i feel that wasting time on lighting up the centerpanel of our tailight (however cool it may be) is still rice.
-i may think it's a cool idea, and so may everyone else.. but it's still rice.
plus i really dont like him (james); or any of his previous things he's said in the past (EDITED....not good) therefore, i was trying to pi$$ him off by doing what he said not to do:

For the 240 coupe/convertible - I saw something similar on a RSX were there was a cutout of the letters RSX and that went over the 3rd brake light. Can we do something like this / anyone seen it done / anyone do it?

I'm sure all of you who label this "rice" have nothing on your car that anyone would consider "rice". Please stay away from this thread.

Please don't take this as a flame as it's not intended to be, just a friendly rebuttle:

That was to be my point. Making a completely unsubstantiated comment to reflect your comment.

-i may think it's a cool idea, and so may everyone else.. but it's still rice.
I think your definition of rice is a little broad here. Rice is trying to make your car look like a speed demon when it runs 17's. How does a lighted center panel do that? A lighted center panel is nothing more than customization to make your car more like what you want it to be.

While you're entitled to dislike someone, please try to refrain from trolling like that. It just makes the boards more hostile than they need to be.
Anyway, sorry for the flame before. I think i've got those winter blues right now

transient.. he man nothign against u at all.. took no offense and meant none back.. sorry.
and yes i was immature in turning this hostile.. but it was in respince to many hostile things James has done.
(i will not speak of them.. so dont ask)
as far as the center panel.. rice is more a a state of mind, than "trying to make ur car look like a speed demon while it runs 17's"
but that's besides the point, b/c i personally have heard of this lighted panel idea b4 it's pretty cool, but i was just trying to **** him off by doing exactly what he said not to do.. and call him rice..
i'm immature

WAIT!! The man has spoken! We must now end this thread because someone not even interested in the topic who is evidently MUCH smarter than us has told us that we are talking rice! Like I said before, these people calling us rice, they can't possibly have ANYTHING done on their car (or "koop") that ANYONE could consider rice. They have spoken. Mods, please lock this silly topic, now!!

Well, I think this thread has become another casualty of the rice-wars.
