General Tech Help - Want an Anti-Tail Gate Switch? Heres how!

<P>So, I want a button that if I am being tail gated i can just flick the switch, watch the guy behind me hammer his breaks as I scoot off and leave him in frustration :) I am looking for instructions on how to do this, please note that this switch is desigend to stop people who tail gate in rush hour traffic, I FULLY respect the left most lane as the passing lane. This switch is also good at keeping people behind you from mimicing you break patterns. </P>

Dont know if posting to other threads is allowed, but they deserve the credit for posting this article, I couldn't find it anywhere!

I'm gonna get it done anyone with me?

If you get that switch thing worked out, let me know.....I want in!

I saw a nice set of instructions on a forum the other week but completly lost the link, all my web searches end up with me finding either this idea except restated, or tailgate's for trucks.</P>

Stupid google!</P>

In europe all cars have rear fog lights (they are just really bright brake lights so idiots dont rearend u in heavy fog), they work great!

I've seen cars with a singel red light up front. Ever seen it?

your button idea is hilarious!

just a shame it isn't my idea, I read it somewhere thought it would super funny and practicle</P>


</P>


Cant beleive I cant find those instructions again</P>


dahhh!</P>


</P>

if you find them....hook me up</P>

jsut use a toggle switch and some how rig it to the brake lights or reverse lights or somethin. shouldnt be too hard. jsut runnin a few wires and a toggle</P>

Most likely thats all the kit would do.

Adam,
If you found the instructions before...just check your history. The website you found should be in there.:D

:P Im gonna do it, i had way to much history to go through I just stumbled upon this article. Can't wait to use this sucker when I drive down to montreal, they drive so ****ing crazy over there

haha this would be cool... i'm new to driving a stick so i tend to roll back a bit more than most. if they get too close i usually just wait till the back up a bit hahaha

Awesome idea!

Red lights facing forward on anything but an authorized emergency vehicle is illegal and will get you a ticket.

Intentionally wiring the brake lights to come on without engaging the brakes is also illegal in many areas.

Be careful.
