Really Badass Good Guy: Lebren
just ordered my smoked rear fog light - sort of a custom order. anyway, it was made, shipped, and delivered in 7 [total] days. he was always available via pm, quickly too, and answered all my questions. sent me tracking # the moment he sent it, etc., etc., etc. awesome sale and customer service all the way around - i'll post pics when i get it installed.
Thanks Lebren!!

i'm trying to learn how to host these so they just show up and you don't have to click on them (
) but for now, here are a couple pics.
yes, i'll take some better ones...sorry - these are just by hand so kinda blurry in some, but you get the idea. i'll take some day shots so you can see how stealth it is - can't even tell a light is there until it's switched on!! awesome product - my favorite mod so far!!
now when someone tails me in traffic, i just say to them "that's right...just follow the rotary..."

oh thanks gregs - i forgot to mention. i ran it to a switch by the dsc button. lebren sent me a ton of extra wire so i was able to run the wire all the way up to the dash, then i just tapped into the cig lighter wire.
i wanted it this way so it acts as a rear fog light. i think i'll help a ton in rainy foggy weather (i've been behind an 8 in heavy rain and even w/ the tails on it was hard to see!!). so instead of a 4th brake light, i wanted a totally separate fog light so to speak.

cool man!! pm me if you have any questions. well lebren too, he's always quick to reply. i had trouble reseating the accent once the light was attached, but it was user error b/c i didn't get all of the oem tape off! other than that it was pretty straight forward.

i was going to do that, but i hooked up the switch the left side, where the dsc button is, so when i started doing it, it made more sense to run it along the left side of the car. i basically just followed the tail light wires (upper left part or trunk, left of rear seat, down along the doors under that black kick plate, then right up behind the dash area to the dsc button area). i grounded it to some bare metal by the steering column. pm me if you have any questions, i'm no wiring guru but i might be able to help.

no, i didn't. but i have little hands
if you kind of lean into the trunk, w/ the side carpeting removed, you can just follow the brake wires down past the seat. a 2nd person would help, one feeding the wires down and one person at the drivers door to pull them through.

no, not a cell phone pic. It was really foggy so I had to take the picture under ISO with slow exposure or it would have looked like the lens had crap all over it. Got some better pics in my album now.
