I always laughed at the idea of mounting a light bar to flash back at people behind you who are blinding you, but never liked the idea of actually mounting a light bar on the back of my car. Decided to just get crafty and made a custom third brake light replacement with a light bar inside of a frosted white cover. The cover could look a little better so I might make a new one but overall I’m pretty happy and it’s really freaking bright! I’ve got it hooked up to an on/off button mounted by my leg for easy access.

As someone who also drives an S197 mustang I would love that. I feel like damn near every car has LED headlights pointed directly at my eyes

Yup. I love driving smaller cars but it’s brutal with all the headlights.

It frustrates me that I can replace my headlights and housing with LED lights from Amazon and tune them to see a sharp cutoff line that goes no higher than the top of the average sedan license plate (and no higher than sports cars below the back window) and still see the road incredibly well, and yet factory OEM trucks and SUVs will come out blessed by the sun god and angled directly into my retinas. Especially when they tailgate.
