A while back I noticed some of the LEDs in the 3rd brake light were busted and today I finally found some time to take it apart to see how I can replace it. To my knowledge from searching around LEDs for 3rd brake lights are not stock. I bought my car 2nd hand and had originally thought MRs came with LEDs but I think they just came with a single bulb. I'm assuming that someone did a 3rd brake light LED conversion before I purchased the vehicle.

How do I go about fixing/replacing the busted LEDs and where can I purchase them? Can I purchase individual LEDs or do I have to repurchase the entire unit?

Here's what I'm dealing with:


3rd brake light lit

Electrical wires for the 3rd brake light inside the trunk

3rd brake light pulled from housing

3rd brake light wiring
