R34 Gtt - Getting All 4 Rear Lights Showing When Braking?

[nuffsaid]

Hi all

Does anyone know how to get all 4 rear lights lit up when braking?

I heard it's possible, however the brake light bulbs are easily blown if not done correctly, especially if the parking lights are on.

Is there a guide on how to do this properly?

Thanks

getting my dad to do this for me as he loves these kinda things.

from what i know what you will need is 2 double filament globes (same as you normal brake light but a size smaller so it fists the hole) and an inline fuse and globe holder.

locate which wire is the brake line wire splice into it it and run the wires to the right fittings int he new globe holder thing and presto.

its easy to do and kinda fiddley thats why my dads doing it for me lol but ye if no one has done this by next sunday ill have mine done by then and will put up a detailed instruction.

I heard that compliance in Australia remove the 4 light feature

So somehow we should be able to reverse that

A DIY with pictures would be great if someone figures it out

I think all 4 door has 4 lighting up cause that's the first thing I notice when I see a 4 door. Haven't seen any 2 door with 4 lighting up so far. Loved to do it to mine.. I thought it was just splicing the smaller light wire and join it to the main brake wire. I mean the ground wire of those 2.

all four of mine stay lit also

All four stay lit as in when you hit the brakes?

It'd be interesting to see if there are any noticable changes to the wiring.

Wouldn't happen to have time to take some pics would you?

as in the two smaller ones stay lit.. but don't go bright when i brake like the big ones..

i only noticed this when i replaced with just jap LED ones.. but am unsure if they were always like it.. i'm sure i could take a pic of the wires

[UnCo]

Oh I think what you're talking about is the normal setup.

Both the outer and inner circles are lit when you have your lights on.. but when you hit the brakes, only the outer ones will go brighter.

I'm hoping to wire it so that even when I don't have the parkers on and I hit the brakes, all four will light up.

well nevermind then.. i was gonna suggest if you wanted it then we could just swap cars
