    third brake light

     



    Have a 1930 ford 2 door sedan just purchased and looking for anyone who know if the billet third brake lights have to be wired from brake switch.. the old third light now has a little circut box that is wired from the back tail lights to keep the 3rd light from flashing when the turn signal are on..anyone know where to get one of these devices??

    All Ya need a couple of relays and a few diodes...... but a new wire from the switch would be easier....... If ya want to do it email me and I make you a drawing

    Good advice - One more safety feature is to buy a blk box that makes the 3rd lite strobe. I added this to a friends streetrod & its effective in making cars back off.They are sold for motorcycles.(I wire in 1 wire out).
