Inner Tailight Modification?

Anyone like to see the inner tailight (the Red on the outside of the Reverse Lights) be used as a Functional Brake light? I'd like to see a Vendor make a kit for this... I think it would make the rear of the Cobalt look complete!

I'd be up for it, but I think I'd want a way to have the outter ones match. The inners would most easily be done as LED's, so if they would also make a kit to make the same ring appear around a center LED in the outters that would be hot.

This is a rough Idea of what I was thinking.

i think it would be easiest to find a way to paint the inside of the lens or find a lense the same size, and then just use a red bulb

To each his own, I'm looking for the Dual light up so It can be the Mini-Vette that we all know it is.

More tail lights = more confusion for people you're leaving behind. Leave it at two so people know they just got whipped by a Cobalt.

The reverse lights should have been next to the license plate frame and had a mini vette look.

i opened my trunk and popped out my two inner lights and drilled 3 small holes on the back of each(i only could find 6 led lights) close up the whole thing lights up but as you get farther away all you can see are three bright lights coming from each of them, but they still look bad ass...i can take a picture if anyone wants...it will have to be at night of course lol

It would look tit if there were multiple LED's all the way around. Not just 5 or 6 maybe 10 evenly spaced would look really good!
