I have a 2nd series 3100 and was wondering what options other forum members have used for a third safety brake light - one that doesn't look bad and out of place.
I have seat belts that I am going to install as well.
thanks in advance.

It's a Hollywood Accessories Safty Lite, an original '40s-'50s accessory item. They still pop up from time to time on Ebay, anywhere from used to new in box (mine was the latter).

There was a discussion in one of the forums not too long ago about it. Try the search feature at the top of the page. Maybe some who have done it will chime in soon.

Not quite as fancy as the after market ones but just as bright and all they cost me was a couple of cheap flash lights and a couple PVC plumbing fittings: http://www.pbase.com/dennygraham/bed_roll_lightsdg
