Nope. I just eyeballed it. I might be off by 1/32 or 1/16 of an inch, so I'm not too worried about it.

Guess I'll have to break out the masking tape and ruler

How did you plug up the holes from the original third brake light?

The Intec had felt covers. Or you can go to a fabric store and get sticky backed felt and cut the pieces to size.

For what it's worth, the stuff Intec included has now discoloured and looks like it's had bleach poured on it.

Looks like it might actually be a tiny bit brighter than the tail lights.

Oh really? That's very surprised to hear (in a good way)

Fairly certain that there won't be any issues with visibility, unless you have a very dark tint on the rear.

Installed Diode Dynamics RGBW DRLs on the boomerang of my BRZ headlights on my FRS. Why? Because racecar.

Washed, waxed, and put on some Premium Auto Styling tail light overlays. Came out better looking than I thought for $20. My desire for Tom's Tails has been greatly diminished for now.

had the ATI gauge pod customized and got it back and installed them.. now the Defi gauges fit perfectly and no need to trim the interior underneath the panel.. a bit big and heavy, will see if something can still be done to improve on it

I washed my FR-S today.

No big deal you say .......

Welp, at age 73, and it being 88 degrees F outside, it was a 2 iced tea and one smoke break deal for me.

Besides, my driveway is on a slant ...... so it was uphill on both sides .....
