Post by: Milby on 19 February 2012, 22:47: my brother was the person who got me into VW's so thought i would show off his car :smiley:
he lives in Australia, used to have a t4 camper but it caught fire a little bit :grin:

I like the 3rd brake light too.

I bet he will get plenty of use with top down over there..

Any plans for it or is he keeping it standard?

Funnily enough Chalky the one thing I don't like about it is the Centre brake. Although I believe it's compulsory.

Post by: chalky white on 20 February 2012, 22:59: Not sure if its compulsory in Aus, it is in the USA though.

There was a boot lid on E bay a couple of years back with the 3rd brake light and it went for daft money.

I like them but wouldn't want one on my car personally.

It's a Marmite one I suppose. :grin: :grin:

Post by: SoundillusioN on 20 February 2012, 23:10: I can't help thinking the brake light looks like an oversized stick on reflector. Very Marmite indeed.
