Good, but a target for theft, IMO.  :neutral:

Nifty though and you might be able to change the colour of the LED when you got it  :idea: :happydance:

You can actually get them in red & blue.... :)


Illegal to show a white light to the rear.   :rolleyes:

Aren't your numberplate lights white?   :winker:

They don't (or shouldn't) shine to the rear, they shine down at your number plate.
But lights that face bacwards are a no no.  :)

I think it is illegal to have red or blue lights either as they are reserved for emergency vehicles.

You do all realise it's only the outline of the badge that lights up, don't you?  :winker:

It's not a headlight aimed out the back.... :lol:

I suspect you're thinking of "flashing" red or blue lights....  ;)

If that's not the case then we're all in big trouble... :D

Thinking of getting a red one and attach it to the line for the break lights, so it comes on when I break, or am stopped at the lights, people behind will have something cool to look at.

There is also a "2-way" version that is white, then red when you break. but MUCH more expensive.

I'd just wire it to the tail lights, not the brakes, that way it's on when the lights are on not just the brakes  :rolleyes:

um...i'm confused. what do u mean?

I thought about getting electricity from the tail lights so that it would be on pretty much all the time. Problem with that is that it would be on all the time, and my car would stand out especially during the night. And knowing my luck, the one time I do something not kosher somebody is gonna call it in and say its the car with the Red H on the back.

Plus, I think this kind of thing needs to be checked with insurance. I remember them asking me if there were any modifications to the car, even the hood deflector might have modified insurance if I would have done it after picking it up from the dealer. If anything ever happened (knock on wood), insurance would probably try to claim its not the car they insured.

Huge decisions for such a small small mod!

Looks like none of the badges they have on ebay will fit the North American Elantra Touring!! :fum:

My badge is close to 115mm*55mm.

Only found the 130mm ones or 97mm ones, none that are 115mm or even close!

My daughter has just ordered one of these for her Mazda (except hers says Mazda, not Hyundai  ;)).
One of the "must have" options I guess.  :confused:

I felt somewhat sorry for Megan today actually.
She's working her guts out doing 14 hour shifts in her new job and has to park her new car in a carpark at a shopping centre.
Irresponsible morons have opened their car doors on to her brand new car and put dents on the left front passenger door, the right rear passenger door and the right front fender.
Why don't people respect other people's property and teach their kids to do the same?

in these situations i don't care what brand of car you own,that sort of carelessness really gets my blood boiling.  :mad:
in my opinion its no different to kicking in someones door and walking away.  :disapp: and you wouldn't do that so why hit other peoples cars with your own and just drive away.  :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:   i hope she can get her car fixed at a reasonable price.  :idea:   inconsiderate bastards.  :twisted: :fum:

I just dont understand those kinds of people. if they ding your door, then it would mean their door got dinged too...so maybe they like scratched paint on their own cars??

That's why we NEVER park near the shopping cart return are, never park near the mall entrance, and never park beside ghetto cars. I would rather walk an extra couple seconds than to come out to find my car has scratches or dents.

And yes, would you attach it to brake lights or the license plate lights?
