Agree. It's much cheaper and still looks really cool.

i thought the thrid break lghts were LED standard, mine is led and i didn't upgrade. guess thats just from '00 to '05. 06 and up must have bulbs.

and yes i just took it out and tinted it with transparent black base and clear coat. though im in a bodyshop so VHT or something similar would be what you need..

i did have it painted silver a while back and taped off the outer circle that is just by the foam seal that fit around the cutout in the trunk. it kinda made it an oval circle break light and dark in the middle. just another option for you

Yup. At least mine are LED too. I never notice unless I'm behind another Monte
