Default Hard Top Third Brake Light

This all started because of installing my Or-Fab tire carrier.

After install my Or-Fad carrie (that I just love by the way) I lost my stock third brake light, that I had modified to work with my 37" spare.

I did not enjoy the fact that I lost my third brake light, Or-Fab had sent me a third brake light kit with the carrier, but just was'nt happy with the look.

So I got out my cut off wheel and went to town. Below is what I ended up with. Yes, I am happy with the out come.....







Just in time for our trip to MOAB.

That looks really good...

do you plan on running a soft top? or takin' the top off

I don't know about the laws in NJ but if you must have a 3rd break u'll might wanna add a fourth one somewhere like on the spare or somthin

It looks really cool

good job

Thanks....No, I won't be removing my hardtop at all, other than the front panels. That's why I went and installed it in the hardtop.

Nice work! If you get around to posting a few more photos, one from the inside would be cool.
