Backup light solution for whom has deleted the rear valence/diffuser

After we removed the rear valance/diffuser on my 86, finally have my backup light relocated today, the idea is inspired from the Toyota 86 14R60 which’s only available in Japan, the backup light on the 14R60 is located on the right, but since I live in a LHD country, that’s why we relocated the backup light on the left side. Btw it’s kinda hard to find the same light here in where I live, so the backup light I’m using is usually for older gen Honda’s, it’s not perfect but it does its job, and i should have space to put a red led into the lamp to make your rear fog light works as well!

I had one of these on my DD when I still had it. It's stupid bright. Unfortunately, I'm not sure if it'll work with a Taiwanese license plate.

Why I kept the original tail lights on my FR-S, easy to convert to nice bright reverse light LED's in the housing...

I've thought about the same thing, i asked diode dynamics about their "tail as turn" kit, unfortunately it won't work with kouki tail lights.
