Default "flaming" rear hatch....

I just got a few pics of what I've done to the cargo area above the shelf.

Here's a pic ya'll:

My wife sewed me a couple of zippered pillow cases out of some flame fabric I found at Walmart, and I slipped them on a couple of 12"X22" pillows I got from there too. Those fit nicely at the back of the rear seats, and when lighted with a 20" green Optix neon bulb, I'm glowing inside and out now.

I used small velcro spots on the shelf and the neon to hold them in place, put a strip of electrical tape on the top of the neon to keep the reflection in the glass to a minimum, (doesn't affect the area of the pillows), and I ran the wires (that I lengthened) under the plastic on the sides, under the front seat seam in the carpet to the center, then under the center console plastic, and I tucked the power outlet connection into the bay under the radio. Handy when I want to power it up, I didn't want to hard wire a switch anywhere.

With the tint on the rear windows, the flames are still visible during the day, but muted a bit.
