On a whim I decided to make an LED third brakelight and LED turn signal
repeaters for my van.  I plan to mount them to the back of the rear shelf,
so they show through the hatch window.  That's my solution, but then I'm a
tinkerer and I think LEDs look cool. If it turns out well I'll post some
photos, for those who like to solder. ;)
