hood bumpers
 
I just noticed the hood bumpers. Great idea, what did you use? I used a length of small chain, but I like your solution better. Do the rear lights flash only , and where did you get them ? Again , great job.

Thank you. Years ago I installed steel commercial doors and these are the rubber bumper buttons that are installed in the frame. I cut the points off the back and used Q-Bond to glue them in place. Yes only the rear lights flash right now. Eventually I want to put amber lights on the front to flash. I used a universal 3 position light switch (off, parking and headlights). The flashing component is on the parking side. The tail light side you have to split the bar between the terminals so you can flash the rear lights on parking and on steady with the switch pulled out. I had to modify a Flasher from a flashlight battery flasher because LEDs don't draw enough power for a car flasher to work.

By the way, I got the rear lights at Walmart. LED marker lights $6.
