GLE third brake light

When I bought my 02 GLE, not only did I still have the stock 3rd brake light, but I also had a spoiler. Both 3rd brake lights work...but it looks pretty ghetto. I'm removed the stock window mount one, but of course this big hole, and I get a light out warning when I step on the brakes. I can fix that problem with a resistor, but I'm curious if there is a cover that can go in place of where the window highmount was. I know on the 4th gens you can get that cover.

There's no cover. You need a new rear deck if you want it fixed.

Only thing I can think of would be to get some fabric material of the same color and clue it over the hole.

They must have installed the spoiler after the car was produced.

What if you just pulled the rear panel out, and re-wrapped it... I did that in my 03 when I did my stereo build. I didnt have the hole for the 3rd brake light, but I added a hidden port from the trunk to the cabin for sound.
