Cargo/Stop Light

[MWehmeyer]

Has anyone installed or seen a combination cargo/stop light for our first gens?

I have not seen one, but I've wanted one and have thought about tapping the cargo light into the brake circuit. I second the question: anyone done this?

You could just put a red LED light in it and rewire it to the brake circuit. Wouldn't be very usefull as a cargo light anymore though.



Does the cargo light work like the dome light? It has constant power to it and the switch is on the ground side?

I almost never use the cargo light, so I wouldn't miss it. Plus, my assembly is so dirty/discolored that it's nearly useless anyway. But, we'd need to figure out a way to have both lights in there, preferably an LED or two on each side and cargo in the middle for symmetry.

I tried mine once to see if it worked... needless to say I would not miss it.

A brake ight would be usefull at least.

Any ideas, Jay? I wonder if we could modify the existing assembly to accommodate several LEDs, say, a triangle of LEDs on each side of the cargo light. The lens, if you will, looks big enough…

Hey, that's great. Too bad there's no pic of the innards…

Looks like a good solution to me - I use my cargo light frequently and I find it works well for my needs. Think I'll try and find 2 red LEDs and 1 white - should be room in there for all three.
