intec 3rd brake light! no more UFO

great meeting you, @BRZtoni! looking forward to next time we meet so i can learn more! it was nice to see the brake light in person - it looks really good.

LOL - it's always easier to clean parts when they're out of the car, so might as well take a couple of extra minutes.

@BRZToni

sorry couldn't drop by, pretty much slept through most of the day (working graveyards). Tackled my mustang high mount today and I love the view out back now. It's a cheap unit unlike the Intec though. The black frame is glossy and the whole thing flares up when lit which I'm not a fan of. It's 3M glued all four sides as well and it looks tacky from outside since the adhesive isn't touching 100% :/ I'll see how it holds up in heat but will be picking up the Intec if this one ever fails.

Also installed my Kahtec flashing module too

how'd you get it all clean looking on top? I'm thinking about just covering the holes with adhesive felt but the indentations will still be apparent.

$60 is pretty reasonable for a back up cam install imo, depending on the model you have. The Beatsonic one is very easy with a very detailed DIY somewhere on the forums. 4th brake light also has a very nice DIY write up somewhere. I'm sure we'd be happy to do it on the next DIY day...provided we set a date lol. I'm still waiting on Fortune Auto to release their cup kit for our cars before I do anymore mods...raising my car is a huge PITA at the moment.
