Adding under-dash lights to Specials the easy way

Post by Resurrector »

While taking my dash apart, I noticed 2 stainless steel plates under the upper dash overhang, I assume the fancier models have lights there?
I took a third brake light assembly from a '91 Caravan, cut the lens backing down and siliconed it into the holes where the plates were...tied them into the door switch wiring, this is the result... pretty sweet looking, I'd say! Definitely adds a touch of class, practical too. What do you guys think?
