They do. But since the Bonne layout would be wide and horizontal rather than tall and vertical, I think you should just go all the way with this idea, and...

Wait for it...

That'* right: A scrolling message display in your taillights. Just imagine: You've blown past the latest fart-can-equipped Cavalier, and he sees the following scroll through your rapidly-disappearing taillights:

..........................Y
.........................YO
........................YOU
.......................YOU
......................YOU L
.....................YOU LO
....................YOU LOS
...................YOU LOSE
..................YOU LOSE.

ive always wanted to build in one of those scrolling mesage machines so you could type in anything you wanted to, it would be hilarious........i love the scrollling break lights idea, lol
