Thanks for the comments; I'm not sure if you saw one of my previous posts, 
but I used the license-plate bracket to mount the light as high as I could 
in the little engine-window area attached to the roof above the air cleaner.

It's adjustable up or down due to the way the bracket works, but I have a 
chrome luggage rack on the back of the car and, would't you know it, the 
chrome bars on the rack just about line up to block the third brake light...
