Lights that will fit in the brake vent intake openings

Does anyone know what size lights or type will fit neatly in the brake vent openings and are they typically just wired to the running lights when installed?

Thanks,

Ponyboy

Yes, if you look at the the radiator intake openings just below the splitters to the inside are round intakes that (I was told unless I am mistaken) were for air ducts to be attached and routed to cool the front brakes. This is not a track car and I certainly do not drive it hard enough for the need to install any additional cooling. I have seen in the past that a light fits neatly into this opening and looks pretty good. Is this not the case?

Exactly.... Omar I watched your court room drama and I have to say you did a great job, very amusing!

You need to start hitting the auditions.

Good luck!
