Some folks were inquiring about the large VW >emblem in the middle of the back hatch (88-91 Vanagons), and I wrote about 2 different ways that I'd seen/heard of this >being made into a 3rd brake light. The first, what I think is the coolest way, was to replace the black background with >a round tail light, so that the VW symbol masks out the light. The other way, is what the Brazil folks have some up with >(and is probably superior), where the VW logo itself is the illuminated section (using LEDs). Anyway, here's the URL for >that <http://www.brazilshopping.com/store/miscsealstrim.html> Does anybody on the list have one of these installed on their 88 or later van? I wouldn't mind one just because of the novelty value but would like to confirm the are definitely gonna fit properly in place of the existing badge. I ask because the T3 was never built by VW do Brasil so I am curious if it is actually designed for a T3...perhaps it was a badge size & design common to other VW models but I can't recall it.
