As a response to covering my lights when carrying my scooter on the back, I  installed some auxillary brake lights on my Westy today.  Hopefully the link for pictures below will work.

The lights are LED and I got them off of Chevy/GMC Astor/Safari vans, where they are installed as the third brake light.  Since I already had installed trailer lighting, I just tapped into it, so I have turn signal and brake light functions.
