Reverse light to rain light?
 
Is there an aftermarket company that sells a reverse light that acts as a rain light for race application?
I looked around and only found some places that convert it into a brake light.
Hopefully plug and play with an ON/OFF switch.

At least on my 2016, if you look under you will see that a spot is molded into the lower light for bulb installation however it’s not open. I drilled/dremelled it out and installed a bulb socket and led bulb from a local auto parts store.
Mine is wired to a brake flasher module but you could easily wire it to a switch and a 12v source. Or wire it to the taillights with a switch in the tire well as you’ll likely be using full lighting at the same time.
Good luck.

Thanks!

Never really looked under there, if nothing is available off the shelf I am sure I can Macgyver something.

On a different note... do you do any track days at Mosport, would love to take a look at your car, thinking of boosting it too.

We track at TMP and Grand Bend since moving to Chatham from Burlington. My Burlington Bud has a 2010 Miata. We haven’t been out yet this season. He has a new job and I had hand surgery in April which has me still on the mend.
