Yeah thats where i saw em. Know anyone with one?? I'm thinking about getting him to send one out to me. I've checked with local authorities, and they can't see why it wouldn't be legal. Mainlywant to find out if they look good on the road

Think long and hard about the xx tail light. My mate has one and has not got on with it at all. In fact he is now on his third one. First had no plate light, second lost the red LEDs and the current one had again lost the reg plate light on his way back from Wales. I was thinking about getting one but with the hassle that my mate has had, I am thinking very hard about it.

Thanks for the comments guys. That was what I was worried about - getting something sent out here to Aust. and then having stuff go pear shaped with it. Much appreciated

You know, I saw those and thought "that's just too cool." But you know, I'm happy to say I have more than enough suspense in my life without having to worry if my brake lights no longer function.

Thanks bunches for the warning!
