I have some ideas for LED mods for the spoiler brake light. I don't want to use the one in my car to tear apart and mount LEDs in it. I had one that I removed the reflector from (no easy task) and wasn't in great shape to begin with. I thought I'd try to install 2 or 3 1-foot LED strips into the lens and forget about the reflector.

Al, is this for the '89, or the '92? I have one at my Dad's shop that will fit the '89.

didn't '92s have a high mount third brake light?

Yes they did.

Since it's for the spoiler, it's for the '89. Sorry, forgot to mention. I'll probably need more than one. I'll be checking local yards too.

What parts do you need? I have one, but the lense peice is cracked in about 3 places. If you need the reflector and stuff for parts, you are welcome to it.

I'm probably going to destroy the reflector and mount a couple of 1-foot LED strips to the inside of the lens. Figuring out how much of the reflector I need for structural integrity is why I want more than one, the lens by itself is rather flimsy.

I have a complete one with reflector and a good lens. You are welcome to it anytime your down this way, or at the next gathering.
