Give Me A Brake, RTS Third Brake Light That Is

[Magic Man]

Well we just finished fitting up the first Beta unit of the New Street Magic Gesesis Series LED RTS HMT Brake Light! :2thumbs: (High Mount Third)

I have to tell you, it fits and looks even better than the CAD renderings! :yes:

I think anybody seening this would be hard pressed to not know it was factory. :dontknow:

This unit features 36 Genesis Series LEDs for unmatched brightness, and come in a contoured to your trunk chrome housing.

Filling in the "void" area along the trunks top edge, this is the light that BRP should have had there in the first place. It's "high mount" design is much more noticable for drivers behind you just like the third brake light in a car's rear window.

With a very easy install procedure, and plug and play connections to your RTS wiring harness. We think even those not normally confortable doing their own mods will be able to do this one no problem. Giving them a Quick Convenient, Safe and Secure installation they can do at home themselves! :ohyea:

Now that the Beta unit has been checked, full production will begin with the first units being for sale towards the end of the month. :yes:

We will also be offering an optional 2 in 1 harness that will allow this light to also function as an additional running light as well as a HMT Brake Light. :doorag:

The MSRP for the Street Magic Genesis LED HMT Brake Light will be $239.00, and the optional Street Magic 2 in 1 Harness will have an MSRP of $29.95. :2thumbs:

So, to increase the safety and visibility of your RT, be sure to add a Street Magic HMT! :thumbup:

Thank you, Evan. I have been suggesting this, asking for it, and anticipating its arrival for soooo long! It is certainly the item BRP forgot, just like the RS third taillight. Now if I only had my RTS to put it on. Wonder which will land first? :D

[TicketBait]

Wow, looks factory. Another nice job Bro. :thumbup:

:agree:

Dang that even looks like chrome on top!, is it?

I was talking to my installation mechanic and he actually mentioned i

should put a light strip there, for the third brake light, I mentioned

another company made it into a wing and wants $900 :yikes: not you of

course, your prices are very reasonable with safety in mind :pray:

This is a must that I am gonna be getting, I will definetly be getting the HMT Brake light

Yes the first post had it in it......

"This unit features 36 Genesis Series LEDs for unmatched brightness, and come in a contoured to your trunk chrome housing."

It was done to match the look of the other chrome trim on the trunk lid. :thumbup:

You don't get it. Once you buy an RT, you're broke.

You don't get it. Once you buy an RT, you're broke.

Oh I get it, we have an SE, SM and RTS so we know all too well how much these are to own.

But that's kind of like saying..

And for some... It was a stretch to go from the RS cost the the full blown RT-S... Could of had two RS's!!! So the budgets are a bit sresssssssed :shemademe_smilie::thumbup:

Oh.. And I have a funny feeling the Gov will not bail us out if we goof :dontknow::roflblack::cus::spyder:

question: when you say easy install, does the rear trunk need to be removed? or is

it just plugging into the rear brake lights by creating a hole in trunk lid for wires to pass through.

I am not interested in the optional harness. Please respond in terms I can tell my

mechanic what is involved so he can give me an installation price. I looked on

your website and it's probably to new for instructions yet.

Thanks again for a great safety product!:thumbup: However I am gonna have to take my wallet to the hospital:helpsmilie:

[WaltH]

Looks fabulous. Now I have to buy a RT so I can get one of these lights.

[ARtraveler]

Great looking product to add some bling as well as an additional safety feature. I was going to keep my RT-S as close to stock as possible--but this item I must have. Let us know when we can put in an order.

[jmcbow]

That really does look like original equipment, very clean and super bright.:2thumbs:

Curious to know how this installs and how you route the wiring on a cover that hinges open and closed? Will you be posting the installation instructions on your web-site?:dontknow:

Sorry but there are no plans for a black HMT unit as of now. :(

Unfortunatly most of the RTS's ether have the factory installed chrome package, or have had the BRP chrome package added to them. We have not seen enough non-chrome RT's to make the numbers work for a black production run.

Ah!! Thank you for the info...

The price is higher than I would like of course. But I already had a lifted truck that almost creamed me from behind. I got off the bike and asked what happened... He claimed ho could not see my tail lights do to the angle... He was judging my by how the bike was reacting...

While this makes since, and really how many folks actually do follow us with the 4 second rule anyway? Yes he should have been following me farther back. Clearly a bike can slow down faster than a lifted 3 ton truck...

But it only takes one person to make it so I can no longer ride... So I will be buying one. Only question is from who can I get one the soonest :ohyea::thumbup:

You can't do better than the ESI lights! If you can afford it, I would also recommend the mudflap lights. If I had my RTS in my possession, the third brake light and mudflap lights would be on it now.

BTW, the standard is the two second rule, in good weather. That's 102 feet at 35 mph and 204 feet at 70 mph. That exceeds the one car length for each 10 mph, that they used to teach. Seldom seen these days...tailgating is an epidemic! I wish they could still give tickets for it.

Thanks... As to your 2 second rule thoughts... I was a trainer for many years... The 2 second rule ended for us around the late 80's to early 90's.. The four second took over... Some today call it the "Smith System" Here is a quick link why... http://smith-system.com/articles.shtml

My state can and does ticket for this. And our new favorite... "Road Rage"... If a person is seen zig zagging in traffic, or slamming on their brakes because someone is following to close (For a few examples).. BAM... Big fine, car towed... Classes in your future... :thumbup:

I do realize every state is different of course.. But I live by one simple rule... Drive like I am invisible... AKA Defensive/offensive

Interesting! They always do things differently on the West Coast. :D They stopped writing tickets for things like "reckless driving", "tailgating", "excessive noise", and such here years ago, after they found the standards were up to officer discretion, and were too vague to be upheld in court. Now the only tickets issued are after accidents..."speed too fast for conditions." One trip down I-94, with cars drafing like the front straight at the Daytona 500, will put fear in your heart for a lifetime. These idiots just don't get it, and our law enforcement seems powerless to stop it.

I have a solution...outlaw power steering and power disc brakes. :joke: When drivers are in fear of their lives, and have to keep both hands on the wheel just to turn a corner, things will get better. OK, I'm joking, but too many people are saved by the available technology, so they have developed bad habits...like talking on the cell phone while driving with one hand...or even while parking! End of rant!

I agree. Our Driving schol teaches 3 to 4 seconds here in Ohio. I say that is the alsolute minimum.

A question you might ask your local driving school, is do they teach motorcycle awareness ? I teach a two hour block on sharing the road with motorcyles, bikes and semi trucks.

Well we just finished fitting up the first Beta unit of the New Street Magic Gesesis Series LED RTS HMT Brake Light! :2thumbs: (High Mount Third)

I have to tell you, it fits and looks even better than the CAD renderings! :yes:

I think anybody seening this would be hard pressed to not know it was factory. :dontknow:

This unit features 36 Genesis Series LEDs for unmatched brightness, and come in a contoured to your trunk chrome housing.

Filling in the "void" area along the trunks top edge, this is the light that BRP should have had there in the first place. It's "high mount" design is much more noticable for drivers behind you just like the third brake light in a car's rear window.

With a very easy install procedure, and plug and play connections to your RTS wiring harness. We think even those not normally confortable doing their own mods will be able to do this one no problem. Giving them a Quick Convenient, Safe and Secure installation they can do at home themselves! :ohyea:

Now that the Beta unit has been checked, full production will begin with the first units being for sale towards the end of the month. :yes:

We will also be offering an optional 2 in 1 harness that will allow this light to also finction as an additional running light as well as a HMT Brake Light. :doorag:

So, to increase the safety and visibility of your RT, be sure to add a Street Magic HMT! :thumbup:

OK fellow SpyderLovers, Teddy & I need your help. On our thousand mile trip to ThreeFeets last weekend, our HMT Brake Light stopped working. It came pre-installed on his 2011 Viper Red SpyderFest Eddition RT-S #1 of 5 & has worked great til now. It is an AWESOME mod & really helps light up the rear of the RT not to mention, the safety factor of having a more eye level running/brake light for ppl following you.

I checked ESI's website, and found the installation instructions so I was able to easily get the rear trunk lid off & readily discovered the problem is a broken wire, as you can see in the pics I've posted. I have left a msg for Kevin at ESI, but being a weekend, I will have to wait til Monday or Tuesday to talk with him.

My question for you all is, how do I get the 3M mounted light bar off the rear trunk lid without scratching up either the Viper Red paint of the RT or the finish of the HMT light bar. I thought about taking a small flat head screw driver, but I'm afraid that would cause nicks & scratches to the paint. Any suggestions?

Also, once I get the light bar off the rear trunk lid, how do I go about fixing it? Anyone know how to take the light apart & if the wire can be reattached & if so, how I would go about that?

Sorry for all the questions, but I make a GREAT cheuffer for Teddy, but sadly, not so much for being an Electrician tho. Teddy & I both thank y'all for any suggestions or help.

Don't use a screwdriver. Damage waiting to happen.

Those lights have dual side tape on the back and bottom of the unit.

I'd recommend a heat gun to apply heat from the inside of the panel to help remove the unit. Being careful obviously to not melt the panel or damage paint.

In addition to the heat you might use an exacto knife or something similar to begin working on freeing one corner. Popsicle sticks may come in handy as you begin prying the unit off slowly.

Remember to let the heat do the work, you will just apply steady pressure as mentioned above to begin working that tape loose.

It won't be easy!

I've never done it, but that is the way i'd approach it.

The 3M tape is a pain to work with but I have been very successful using Nylon Lacing Tape basically doing the see saw back and forth while pulling under the HMT. It takes some time but it will come off. Isopropyl Alcohol helps also once you start working the tape between the lid and HMT. Sub for the lacing tape could be dental floss but you will have to double or triple it up.

Maybe fishing line.

Dave , I agree with these suggestions. I have used fishing line before to remove automotive trim. Use the saw back and forth method and it works great, take your time . You might want to wear gloves so the fishing line won't dig into and cut your fingers.

Thanks everyone for your suggestions. I got out the hair dryer and started heating the area in the picture, and this part of the wire popped up. Its seems to be still solidly connected inside the HMT light-bar and must have somehow gotten caught in the rear trunk lid when I closed it, and cleanly cut it off. Its only about a half inch in length, so I'm not sure if its long enough to work with. I ordered some posi-locks from their web-site & figure I will wait til I get them to mess with it any more for right now.

Again, thank you all for your help. I love this web-site, BEST on the web for anything and everything Spyder related!

I would use heat to remove the light bar, then some 3M adhesive remover. Fishing line is a good idea, however since you're not working on a flat surface, I think it would be near impossible to remove this way.
Be sure to tape off the area around the light if you decide to use a solvent since it may dull the paint.
If you're planning to install another light, I would drill that hole a little bigger and run the line thru the hinge and down to the light connector, per the instructions. There should be nothing rubbing against the wire.
Good luck Dave!
