Question LED 3rd brake light?

Anyone know where you can buy an LED 3rd brake for a 2000 WS6 (98-02)? Everyone that I see on ebay etc. says "will not fit raised spoiler". Ive seen them on here on some members' cars but can't find any for sale..

The TA one is discontinued and is no longer being made. I attempted to find the original manufacturer, but failed. The V6 hatch style lights are the only ones left in stock. I have one of the TA high rise spoiler LEDs, but I'm not selling it.

Sad news... the company that seems to ship it (not sure if they are the original manufacturer) seems to be "4 Car Option".

They are not, and they would not put me in touch with the manufacturer or tell me where/how they get them, or if they will ever be made again.

Have you checked yours to see if there's any manufacturing info stamped into it?

I did when I first got it, but I didn't see anything really obvious. I'll check again one of these days. It's not like cheap eBay pieces have any identifying traits though that will let you trace down the factory in China.

well I searched that part number in google. Found several links, all showing this light. Is this the one for the raised spoiler or the flush one? I can't tell from the pics it gives...

They're pretty hard to find for the high rise spoiler. I'll sell you my stocker if you want it.
