Raxiom 2010 Style Tailights Dummy Reverse Light Fix

Hey guys,

I wanted to do something to my stang, but I didn't want to spend any money. So, I decided to "fix" the dummy reverse light problem on the Raxiom 2010 tail lights I bought. I couldn't find any write up on how to do this, but it seemed pretty straight forward, so I gave it a try.

Long story short, I used the reverse light base from an original tail light harness (I currently have plug-in sequentials from AM) and spliced it into the sequential's reverse wiring. As I didn't have a wide enough drill bit and I didn't want to buy a new one, I drilled multiple holes and cut the rest with a knife. I think it came out pretty good for only using a drill and a knife :bigthumbsup

Right I see what your saying.
Yeah some of my ideas I don't always go they with. But I did add blue ambient lighting to my floor boards. For instance when I open my doors the light up and when I close the doors they fade away. Then when you turn the driver side dome light on the floor lights up on the driver side and the passenger side the same way.

I actually tried that a couple of months ago, except instead of using a template I did it by hand, since those are the stock tails and I have the raxioms (the inserts are smaller). It looked nice and really set it apart from others, but since I did em by hand they came out sorta crooked. I had some pics from when I did it but I lost em when my hard drive fried.

I some leftover plastidip and im currently out of ideas on what to do to my stang, so I might try it on the original tails for kicks hehe.

Yeah for laughs, I'd do it too. Just to see what it would look like. Just thought you would like it. Maybe you'd give it a try ha

But the next thing ima do to mine it prolly lower or tune it. What you think?

Personally, I've been hesitant on buying perfomance mods. In the case of our sixxers, I feel that they need ALOT of money invested in em to even be able to compete with the 05-09 GTs. I love my stang to death, but I can't justify adding performance mods to it.

That being said, I do like the lowered look some people have achieved on their cars. Also, from what i've read, a tune makes even a stock v6 into a totally different car for the better.

Yeah honestly that's why I am only interests in lowering it so I can just get lower to the ground and I love te stance So much better than the 4x4 look that everyone mentions. I was looking at mine today from the back driver side and really noticed that 4x4 stance that everyone talks about.

And as far as the tune goes, that's what I've read as we'll.. That the tune makes a world of difference. I have a BBK cai, and polished Pypes shortie headers for a deeper sound coming out of my Flowmaster American thunder 60-series axle back. I love it! At times a little poppy, but only before it warms up. So the tune would be great!!
