I'm not a high tech guy but after observing my caller telephone ID flashing I came up with this simple manual FRED/EOT. with radio shack parts.. 1) Blinking red led, 2.8 volt, can be CLEAR or RED, part # 276-308, $1.80 . 2) Flush mounted slider switch, can be SPDT or SPST(pkg of two), part #275-409A, $2.00 3)Aaa battery hardness clip enclosed in case, part # 270-414, $1.20 4)Two Aaa batteries. 5)Doubled sided tape to mount battery case on car floor. 6)Two screws/nuts to mount slider switch(2-56's) which can be side mounted. 7) Drill a hole just above the coupler to seat the bulb. Can be expanded to Aa operation providing you can find a double Aa battery metal clip holder with a connecting snap cap. Adds 2 1/4 oz to the car. Yap, there's a better way but this is my way.
