3rd Brake Light fixed Was washing the T/A other day and saw my 3rd brake light was cracked. Some stop lights around here are insanely long! Opened it up and saw the old school bulbs were too hot, melting the sockets and cracking plastic. Ordered a low mileage part off Ebay including harness for $55.00. Ordered replacement LED bulbs for a couple bucks. I cleaned with alcohol, sanded the part with wax compound and fine sand with metal polish, turned out looking mint. I'm happy with results

I'm getting on board the LED wagon! I replaced the rearview mirror ones with the direct plug 9 led circle kind, very modern and bright! ordered the led hatch light, ordered the front/back bumper lights.
