Middle or Third brake light
Can someone tell me where I can find a LED middle brake light for a 95
Explorer on the net.

Re: Middle or Third brake light
an LED middle light ?
I didn't even realize that aftermarket LED units were made for them..
Just out of curiosity, why would you want to convert it ? Cost ?

Re: Middle or Third brake light
For some pricey $$ you can convert the lamps to LEDs.. I forgot the site,
but a google search should give it.

I think you my be confused. The original 3rd brake light for a '95-'97 is
actually neon gas discharge. '98 & up have LED 3rd brake lights.

No it isn't... it's a high voltage gas tube (like a fluorescent)..
There's a little ballast in the tailgate to run it. (which is usually what
quits when they go out).
That's why I thought you might be asking about an LED replacement, it would
no doubt be cheaper than the orig parts !

Yes, you are right there is a ballast in the tailgate. Thanks for the tip.

Re: Middle or Third brake light
Sounds expensive.. I'd be tempted to fabricate parts from a '91 and use
lamps. Couldn't be that hard.
