A Novel Location For Rear Lights
« on: January 14, 2005, 11:35:53 »
I've just seen this on an American(?) LR forum.

A bit precariously positioned I would have thought?

Originally I thought they were simply reflectors, but on closer inspection that's a wiring plug not a retaining clip.

Those Yanks!!! :roll:

Those lights would be good for parallel parking. Just heat the smash and you're close enough

Hmm....interesting idea for a rear step. I've a reciever for my removable tow hitch, a step like that would be handy.

Did they mention where it was purchased  :?:

Surely the whole point of having a big towbar is for something for the numpties to run into!

Hmm.  Might get a receiver hitch and fit it with a 3' spike!

Just the step would be fine, not sure I like the lights. It would help the kids climb in the back, then I could take it off.
