LOL My original response was in no way an attempt at actually helping you make your car look retarded. You have a 3rd brake light already why would you need another? If you're so interested in the idea you might want to take some measurements and find an led lightbar that would fit, that would be how I would go about doing it if I wanted to make my car look funny, I really don't see this being a very hard concept to grasp.

hmmm i was thinking about doing this under my dmax wing, but the local popo give out $200 fixit ticket for any non-dot lights used on public roads.
am seriously contemplating going to the junk yard and hacking the 3rd brake light off some hatchback/van/suv w/dot stamps and glassing it to the wing.

i want to use them as a third brake light if anything. so there needs to be a low beam and high beam.

really? I though D.O.T. requirements are for headlights and tail lights not auxiliary lights.

8.5.3.2. Each vehicle must have a brake light that is visible from the front of the vehicle,
and from above. Roof/front brake lights are available at Home page (http://www.v-leds.com).
They are 36 inches long LED strips. They are to be mounted at the base of the
vehicle roof, at the top of the windshield. They are to be mounted after the
installation of the FORMULA DRIFT windshield banner and the strip should run
along the top of the windshield and be centered. The light must be connected to
the existing brake light circuit. Competitors must use specified light kits which are
available from FORMULA DRIFT.
here you go straight from formula d
