Hey Everyone,
I need a little help here. I'm looking for the white high level / third brake light for my MCS. I've gone to my dealer but they quoted me over £40, nearly double what it was before a 'tactical' part number change!!!
I was therefore wondering if anyone could get one cheaper and from where or whether anyone has one for sale eg. off a car they are about to part with or if replacing clear lights back to the regular ones (don't know why you would but...)
So if anyone can help me it would be much appreciated

Cheers,
Matt

Cheers in advance Tony

HAHA
I read about this in another thread!!!
Come on then, spill the beans....any tips?

Cheers,
Matt

Wish I knew an easy way, I struggled till it eventually came out

Just be careful not to scratch the paint.
It's best to put a cloth under the old light while you get the connector undone.

Other people have said it's easy though

Maybe I should have told you this after you sent the cheque

matt1584 · Apr 19th, 2005, 09:59 PM

Yeah on second thoughts I think I'll pass on the brake li........
Just kidding, I'll give it a go, fingers crossed!!!!

As Matt appears to have got sorted out - I thought I would hijack his thread

Does anyone else have a spare hi level clear brake light? If so PM me as I would definitely be interested

Cheers Mart
