it's late and i'm giddy!

Heather already posted that their new light wasn't expected to cost "too much". Anything less then the OEM rear fog is fine by me.

You guys should have gotten derwankel's rear rotary lamp when he still made them.
It was some 80 bucks (shipped), looks totally OEM and fits great. Plus he had a version that fits with the OEM rotary symbol and one that is without the rotary emblem.
Pity he stopped making parts for the RX-8.

Hi,

It's going to be a little bit more of a do it yourself kit than the former version, so it's looking like we're going to be able to offer it at a significantly less price... hopefully as low as $59.99.

We'll be posting installation instructions prior to the launch.

that would be my car :)

I have the OEM rear fog light with the wiring spliced to the brake light wiring. And yes it is expensive, mostly because of the fog light wiring harness that I didn't need :( But I was able to sell that so the cost ended up less than $100.

Maybe I could use this as a reverse light? I'd like to use the red overlay for my tailights but then the reverse lights would stay red.

No use the rotor light as the reverse light. Make it clear instead of red and paint or tint the taillight red. This would be the replacement for the reverse lights.

hmmm...i don't know if people would get that it's your reverse light. and the fact that you'll only have one will add to the dilemma.

i doubt it, all cars have reverse lights in different locations, once ppl see a clear bright light light up i dont think it'll make a difference, but i think itll look kinda tacky anyways with a clear lamp in the back

I think to avoid confusion, you should get one of those super duper cool back up beepers like the trucks have. Then you would have one of the most unique 8's around.:lol:

I don't think that people know what the clear bright lights mean here in Ontario (at least not on the street where I work)

I can drive the car up the road, put it in reverse with my signal light on, and still have idiots drive up the street and pull right up behind me and sit there like idiots... (This happens quite a few times each day as i'm bringing cars to the front of the dealership and am required to back them into their parking space...)

The early mini coopers have the reverse light in that location. The 05+ minis have a rear fog in that location, with the reverse lights relocated into the brake/signal lights. Just traded mine in on my 40th anniv RX-8, and though I had one, that rear fog was something that isn't legal in some states (Oregon and/or Washington, if I remember correctly).

well, yes, southern california traffic blows. but this pick was taken on an onramp where they have a stop light to let a couple cars go at a time to ease the traffic. and it works! but come 4pm and that's a different story...

Tis is the japan version tat fits snugly into and under the orig rear accent. The back box is a controller that selects between flashing and non flashing when brake applied. Even the flashing rate can be selected ! if u need the source juz pm me !
