If you're talking about the spoiler light...yeah, the place to buy it is at http://electrodyne.com. It's not a direct fit. Cutting of the tabs and drilling a pass thru hole for the wire is needed in order to modify this setup. It looks good, though when it's done. I was thinking about this, but I was skeptical of how bright the LED's are, as compared to the stock LED's.

i've alwasys thought about this mod.. it would be nice, but how bright could it be? if anything you could always tint it a little.

I did mine a couple of years ago and have had no problems. The replacement unit is just as bright as the OEM brake light. I used the following Cardomain link for instructions and ordering the clear brake light: cardomain site

there's the right link. i did mine and i love it. it actually lights up brighter than my tails when i brake, so no problems there. i don't remember where i found the write up i used, but it's very simple to install. all you need is a dremel, a drill, some tape, and some epoxy.

Anyone have a pic of the spoiler light smoked out w/ Nightshades? I'm thinking about maybe doing it.
