    The way I understand it, ALL or at least some 1986 cars will have a
center mounted rear brake light mounted up higher that the taillights.
Now, is this for *all* 1986 cars, or just a few?  Is it a law, or something
the automakers are doing on there own?  What vehicles will get them?  What
about strange shapes, like a Mazda RX-7, or a cheese wedge shaped import?  I
am thinking of ordering a Jeep Cherokee (the little one) and am wondering if
it will get one since the government claasifies these things and the Blazer
and Bronco as "special purpose vehicles", not as "cars".  What about pickup
trucks?  If anyone in Detroit that knows is reading (or Ohio, where I
believe the Cherokee is produced) the net may appreciate a response.  Thanks
in advance. Bob Lagasse
