    Doesn’t a reversing light take the fun out of it

    Now they know you are coming at them.

    I have mounted it just above the LH hand grip/bumper to protect it, although it has a sturdy diecast body.

    It’s a good job you’ve done there John, but I was curious why you went to so much trouble - are you particularly safety conscious, or spend a lot of time reversing Clutch and Welch plug?

    Cheers,

    Matt

    I usually only take it in to town for the annual pink slip, but seeing most parking in Dubbo is nose in parking, I do a lot of reversing into traffic when I do. And every trip I get very anxious about someone not realising I am reversing, especially since the rear visibility is not too good with the canvas on.

    It is something I have been going to do for years, but I just seized the opportunity when I had the floor out for the other work, and hence access to the gearlever base. Running the wiring was pretty trivial.

    That makes a lot of sense, you don’t want to risk that beautiful car being damaged by some inattentive or careless driver!
