opinions/criticism wanted

Well shoot ! There was red/white DOT reflective tape for sale in fairly large pieces at the Hayes event. The trim pieces on my doors have a reflecter at the end (hiden by the seat back in pic). But that stuff could work and save you the hassle of wiring. Remember... someday you'll need access to replace the bulb if electric. Fiber optics could place the bulb behind kick panels (ideas aplenty). I do like the fish better than 'cuda though.
