Magnetic brake lights
Can anyone give some recommended brand names for magnetic brake lights that go on the toad?

I think I can safely say NOT Harbor Fright. At least the entry level ones with regular Stop/Tail bulbs in them. Reasons:
1. The wiring is so skimpy they don't illuminate properly. An LED version should be OK in that regard because their draw is so much lower. BUT...
2. The magnets didn't hold very well. Admittedly I had them up in the moving air, but I lost one on the first trip using them.
I have a lot of HF stuff, but the lights didn't show me much. That said, they have Magnetic LED on sale right now $30/set. They'd probably be OK stuck to a flat step bumper, behind a tailgate. Not sure they'd stay on rough road/and/or windy day.
