I'm thinking about doing this. I have a friend with a very nice T/A, and he has the same problem the rest of us have. High beams from cars behind us. I don't know about the rest of you, but it really bugs me. For oncoming traffic, a little flash will remind them, but drivers behind us (especially suburban assault vehicles) don't seem to care, at least in the great state of 55-in-all-three-lanes Maryland.
He mounted a set of HID lights in his rear. These are cleverly disguised by the T/A rear plastic, immediately to the left and right of the bird. When someone comes up behind him (this happened last night on our way back from the strip cl..., uh... library) with their high beams on, he just hits a little switch under the dash, and the lights disappear!
I'm just wondering about a good mounting point for a Camaro!

I took a windshield washer kit, and mounted it in the bottoms holes of my license plate. When someone rides me i simply flip a switch and it mists like my car is leaking fuel of oil or something. This normally getrid of anything behind me. Then on cruise nights i point them up and fire tham at hondas behind me.

Me and my buddyies used to fill the washer tank with Jack and coke and a bunch of ice. One of the washer lines wash routed to the inside of the passenger compartment. "hey, I need a drink". Give the guy the tube and hit the mist button!

I like the washer in the license plate idea but use brake fluid instead; then if someone is riding your butt, you just push the button and they get to repaint their front end. <img border="0" alt="[evil]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_devil.gif" />
