tom, that could be fun, ive got a few different ideas to mess around with with a tail light (changing colors, goin to LED etc)

I think the ones you are talking about are spider lights, they have 5 sections with 40 leds total 30 front facing and 10 rear facing) that fold up to fit through the 1" bulb hole then open back up once through, they look nice but are expensive at $27 a bulb
