Third (3rd) Brake Light - 2005 Continental GT

Hello,

I have a small crack in my third brake light and am looking for a new one. I was curious if anyone has the part numbers needed or a line on the best place to look.

I have heard that in some cases the rear window must be removed, in others I have heard of a "stick-on" version of the lighting.

In all cases, I understand the headliner needs to be removed to hook up the new lighting.

Anyone have instructions, information... etc.

Thank you,

CORRECTION: Oops, posted WRONG part number that was from another job. It is 3W5945399B as below.


As for how to install, my dealer did it and took about 2 hours or so.

If my memory serves me correctly, I believe Zaos completed a great "How to" on this not too long ago. Just do a search on his posts to find it.
