OEM third brake light?

[tigermack]

Does anyone know where I can find replacement bulb or strip for the OEM third brake light? I looked for an OEM one, it's $250+!

I can tell 2 bulbs are burnt out and the rest doesn't light up, I checked the fuses and it doesn't appear to have blown.

The third brake light has led's. led's do not normally burn out. There is a connector in the trunk below the light. make sure it has not
been disconnected. you could also use the jack to test that you are getting
voltage to the light. You can also remove the brake light pretty easily and
test it.

I have the whole assembly, all LEDS work. Removed it at 10K miles and it has been sitting in a closet since. I took mine out and shaved the rear deck lid. Been trying to sell for 20 shipped. PM me, and I'll get you some pictures. Have it up on several FB groups, but no interest yet.
