Ditto, I don't think makes a 3rd brake light for us. I searched for about a month and came up wit nothing. Mine had about 4 LEDs so I ended up replacing it with an OEM one off of ebay.

Damn, just re-read my last post, all ****** up.

I doubt anybody makes a third break light for us, I searched hi and low and did not find anything. Like I said earlier...or meant to say, my original had 4 LEDs out in it so I went ahead and bought a new one off of ebay, the LEDs are brighter but there is only half the amount of LEDs than the original. Turned out good for me because the spacing matches my LED tail lights.

If you’re looking for a new one b/c you have several lights burnt out, don’t go out and buy a new one, fix the damn thing!!!!

Remove the light (there is a plug which makes un-installation a snap)
Remove the burnt LEDs with a soldering iron (just heat the solder and pull)
Buy some new LEDS from radio shack
Soldered the new LEDs in (this doesn’t take an expert, it’s just a long plastic strip with LEDs in a line)

Took me around 30 minutes when I did mine about a year ago.

im thinking of shaving my TBL, has anyone ever done this/heard of anyone doing this?

but if your looking for something brighter/better you could always buy one of these. there 12/14 volt ready and you could use 2 separate ones kind of like a line of fire, make them work with your break/turn signals.
