    Hi guys, my Wife is out of town with the kids for a month, so with tons of time on my hands, I want to make a new set of brazilian lights. I've been doing a lot of research and after talking with some local custom hotrodders, I think I can make some nice new lenses with a custom alluminum housing. I'm thinking about recessing them in the tail, and eliminating the back-up to allow a 3-light sequence. Does anyone have a spare lens? If I could even get a tracing of one, it would help so I could get some lenses cut. Thanks.

    That would be cool. What would be even cooler is if you could make them to bolt directly into the slots on the American Mavs with no mods. (y)

    I don't see that as difficult, I was gonna try that first to see how it looked before cutting the panel to "french" the lights

    I've got the materials sitting on my kitchen table, just need a template. Looking at pictures, they don't see much longer than the stock lights at the height of the stock housing....? :hmmm:
