Check my rig out... regular OEM esky third brake light and OEM esky tail lights..
Very easy install and did not cost that much to get the spoiler color matched...
Just wish the OEM 3rd Brake light did the whole top strip and not the middle portion... cheap GM move...View attachment 212032

How easy was the Cadillac brake lights install? Im looking at some aftermarket tahoe, yukon taillights for my escalade since like nothing even kinda cool is made for them but dont wanna buy them and try and resell when its a lot of work or doesnt line up well at all.

Five screws. One connector. Less than 15 minutes.

We did this until GM put a stop to us doing it, I could not take that stupid look of the Escalade 3rd brake light not being the full light, everyone we did still works today

So much nicer. Why didn't GM want you to do it? Huge improvement imo.
