Brake light

According to the manual, I'd say it's blue. I always double check with a test light or voltmeter, though.

There are 2 ways to post pics I know of. Might be more. If the pic is in your system you can go to avanced reply bottom right and the line under Title will be Attachment. Click on Browse and fish the pic out of your system.

The other way is to have a photobucket account. Once pics are in that account, you hoover the curser over the selected pic and coose to copy the bottom code IMG Code, it says on the left.

Copy that, start a post or a replly here and hit Ctrl and V keys in the reply window, and the code will appear. When you post the picture will be there.
