    I drive an 18 too, my trailer has two 4" LED brake lights on each side, and I got rear ended last year while I was sitting at a red light ............................................got hit by another 18!

  2. Hide them, tail lights usually break up a good look, down off the frame would be good.

    They are safer up high, but cooler down low. Getting rear-ended by today's super distracted because they couldn't see them ain't cool.

    I agree. The whole high low get hit stuff makes sense along with third brake light. But a hot rod is a hot rod not a 18 ride.
