That's nice Dan - like it! How have you routed the wires out of interest?

The wires are glued along the underside of the louvre spine

Photos glaring in dark best I could take

My third brake-light has developed a fault that if I can't fix cheaply I might steal this idea. It looks fantastic!

Hi,
I made the lights myself.
These are the 2nd version, they look how I want them but the wiring/connection side is fiddly and messy so needs refining which im doing shortly
If there is enough interest maybe I could made some sets in Kit form that just plug and play.
