In the procees of making a lighted FB logo. THis is the logo that sits on the rear hatch glass. i am going to cut out the leeters of rx-7 and the fill them with plastic fill. Then i will put a light behind it. here is waht i have so far:

(Not done)

 

fixed her up a bit more. Any one got any ideas to lgith her or get power to her?

 

fiber-optics?

 

use leds. you can buy them on ebay real cheap. you could to run it off a battery. i once had an led that stayed lit up for like a week on a few AA's.

 

Shot with the primer on:

 

yea but then you'd have to climb back there and turn it on everytime, if you ran it of the car battery you could just hook up a switch without to much extra work. I'm sure you could find a way to hide the wires.

 

I would hook it up a a third brakelight

 

thats true who wants to crawl back there?. you would have to run it from the top of th hatch so you could still open it.

 

the third brake light is a good idea, that would be sweet.

 

Mine is old and ugly. Does anyone know of a place to find new emblems?

 

that is a pretty good idea, 3rd brake light. i've got extra latch's the paint that says rx7 is faded a bit i must have 8 around here.

 

why don't you just hook it up to the tailight so that it'll come on when you switch the lights on.

 

you could make it work make the wires disconect when u open it with like little brass fittings that contact when shut

 

With a little wire splicing, you could just hook it up as a taillinght.... it wouldnt be hard at all. The only tough part will be wiring it so you can still open the hatch without the wires gettin in the way...

 

yeahi was going to splice it into the brake lioghts, I was just wondering on ideas for wireless contacts to use.

 

i think that is awesome!!!!! it would prob be a big aftermarket part! i would have one!

 

You could put some contacts on the hatch seal and on the hatch glass so that they contact when the hatch is closed. The pressure from the hatch seal would be enough to keep them connected.

It would be a lot less messy to do it this way, you wouldnt need wires running around from the front of the hatch.

 

Make that into a belt buckle

 

thats a good idea lol
make it light up when your zipper is put down
run it on some double a

 

Blue LEDs would look awesome...

 

Belt buckel,,,,, gooed one Mel. i think i'm going to make a couple of 'em want one when done ? no lights though.
maybe ????

 

my 3rd brake light > your 3rd brakelight

your skills on cutting straight need to be imporved a little, im sorry and dont take offense, but that looks terrible, clean it up, make the lines straight and it may turn out nice

Your Brake light does not look centered.

What car is that from?

 

it may be a little off centered, i didnt really mess with it to much i put it in when it was snowing and i was in a hurry to be done, now that spring has hit i have been involed in getting my turbo setup finished, so the cosmetic **** comes after all that is finished
i may however be getting ahold of a full wings west body kit for a good price so that will be going on when the turbo is done
