FC LED tails

Has anyone added a third brake light on the inner side of the reverse light? Like instead of 2 red circle lights on each side there would be a third on the other side of the reverse light... Post some pics of your LED tails too. I want to see everyones work! Im working on mine this week

than it wouldn't be a third brake light if it was on the same level as the other brake lights, it would just be another brake light.

Yea I know what you mean, I was having a hard time explaining my idea... Like instead of 2 red circles horizontally across each lens I was going to cut a hole for a third in the plate light housing.... thats what I meant

Nothing too crazy just have mine tinted, pics of my s4 and s5 tails. Cheap to do and it looks decent IMO.
