I've seen some guy who added the Lexus GS? triangular brake light things to his hatch, and it turned out pretty well.

Yea the hatch is much better spot due to the depth, working with with only 3 inchs of depth is the hard part.

that didnt stop me..

now i have though about something... 05 malibu tails (mainly because my mom got rear ended and the other insurance copany replaced her tails when they didnt need it, so i have a brand new set just sitting around)

but there is no place to do it..
