High Visibility Brake Light.

Rather than hijack the tint thread thought I would start another.

For visibility and looks a few members have suggested removing the bat-mobile tail light. Found this online looks to do the job.

I know people who have been pinged for it. I almost did but got let off with a warning. It certainly isn't common to get fined for it, but it certainly does happen
