| On the trunk lid?
Sorry but I'd vote no on that one. IMO the external 3rd brake lights on Caddies and the C6 are 110% visually inferior to the hidden internal design on the Riv. If anything you might be able to start a business specializing in removing it from Caddies and Vettes.
My hat's off to you if you've got the fabricating skills to do this mod though. | |

| you could get one of the spoilers that already has a 3rd light on it. that would look better IMO that one on the lip of the trunk. _________________ 1996 with 254k miles, L32 4" FWI -> ported N* -> Ported Gen V w/3.0" Pulley, Stage 3 Phenolic I/C, ZZP FMHE, 1.84 RR, Headers and 3" pipe to mufflers, F-body brakes, and lowered on Eibachs. -RIP AMG C400 White on black.

| couldnt find a seville tail pic so i used the 07' STS light strip from the trunk lid. now i know i suck at photshop, but i think it has too much red in the back with that strip. of course thats just my opinion _________________ 1996 with 254k miles, L32 4" FWI -> ported N* -> Ported Gen V w/3.0" Pulley, Stage 3 Phenolic I/C, ZZP FMHE, 1.84 RR, Headers and 3" pipe to mufflers, F-body brakes, and lowered on Eibachs. -RIP AMG C400 White on black.

| I don't think that'd work since the logo on the back is the keyhole for the trunk. | |

| Patented and Licensable
This note tells me it won't be so simple. Getting a car maker to license you to use their logo isn't easy or cheap. The website is missing a lot of info that should be on there without having to email for more info. I'd be wary. Not a lot of hits there either, pretty new. | |
