Does this work with the stock third brake light or do you have to buy another... if it does work with stock, how does it fit in?

yes it does. You just disassemble the stock light from the factory tire carrier and attach it to the Smittybilt carrier with the screws provided IIRC. Very easy.

It works with your stock brake light and has two screws in the back that holds it in place.
1624639
Yes. Just be careful with the screws and do not make them too tight or the plastic will crack.

Yes, You have to take everything apart as far as the stock tire carrier and once everything is apart the stock brake light screws into the smittybilt tire carrier. It fits well and I am running a 35in Tire with stock rims which i have had mounted for about 3 months now and everything is as sturdy as it was when I first installed it.

This did work with my stock third brake light and is adjustable to a 35 that is what I'm running.

Yes it does work with stock break lite just a couple screws to attach I left mine off cause it's kinda pain in the ass if I remeber right. Keep in mind if you run steel wheels with center caps you are gonna have to have something made to center te wheel on the post the post is the diameter of a stock alloy wheel

The stock light does fit. Your light has extra wire length tucked away. It slips right in and then you CAREFULLY screw it to the new tire carrier

It works with the stock brake light. In the picture the part in the middle that sticks up is where the light attaches. It's very easy to install. I think you can download the instructions online.

Depends on your use, if your vehicle uses the same light for both turn and brake it will work as both. In my application I need two of these on each side, one for brake and one for turn. they each have a low (marker, running light) and a high (turn or brake) setting.

It works with the stock airbox. You need to do a little cutting and drilling. I riveted it to my air box with some epoxy for a tight seal.

The best info I can offer is that the 3rd brake light was in the way on my 2005 Wrangler. I ended up getting the Thule Spare Me and it worked great. It is significantly more expensive but I was very happy with it.

I tested each of mine before I installed the to verify which wire was common and ,brake , tail/light ,backup because of what you mentioned . (no instructions)I also verified existing wiring colors for their function and connected the new lights and had no issues. they work great and are a lot brighter than the originals.

Hi, I purchased the tail light assembly for a 2003 and a 2004 trailblazer (2 daughters). The assm from the factory leaked water and the wiring harness would fail and the bulbs would corrode in the sockets. There is a part number on the assembly, I recall that you can check on the web.

As long as you order the right bulb size for your stock bulbs. Yes it fits and it's plug and play, takes 10 minutes to install

The third brake light needs to be wired directly to the brake light switch for constant on/off. If the 3rd light is flashing then it's wired to the brake light circuit after the turn signal switch. In some cases the brake lights and turn signals use the same bulbs/circuit.

You use the existing reverse light bulb, as for the brake lights they're already in the fixture you'll just have to take the bulb out of the old and you'll plug right into there, it's very simple

It is Highly possible that the two wires for the brake lights are reversed... I have had this issue a few times in the past with SPYDER products... easiest way to check is make 2 jumper wires... put one in one side of the pigtail and one in the other.... make sure they are long enough so you can put them in the place where the pigtail normally lines up and cross them.... have someone hit the brake pedal to see if that is the culprit.... if so you will need to cit and splice the wires so they go to the right connection. Or some other alternative of that nature.Hope thats all it is. Good Luck !!! It is Highly possible that the two wires for the brake lights are reversed...

your bike has the 3 volt tail light in it... you will have to hook the running light wire (from our light bar) into the positive of the tag light wire(on the bike). you will have to tap into the input side of the ACM under the seat for the brake (+) this should be a white/pink wire (please use a LED test light to test it for 12v). DO NOT attempt to hook 12 volts to the factory tail light.

We have not tested the products together. However if they are the same size as the factory tail lights there should be no issues. They do work with our LED tail lights. Thank you!

Got this specific light for my 2007 Mazda 3 hatchback for my brake light but unfortunately it didn't work so what I did was to use it for my back up light. It's nice and bright.

My brake lights did not work at all. The lights sockets were not making contact with the aluminum part in the fixture. With the new sockets my work now, but if I have any more problems I will just replace the entire back lights.

I installed one in my 2004 Silverado with LED's in the rear and filament lamps in front and it worked great. Will your lights turn on at all and not flash or do they just not come on at all? Did they work with your old flasher & just flash rapidly? My old flasher made my signals flash rapidly w/led's until I put this flasher in and then it slowed it down to normal speed. Put your old flasher in to see if your lights work. It could be you have bad flasher.

Are you replacing an existing 7 pin socket? If you are not I believe you will need to extend wires back from the fuse box for the brake and battery charging circuits. You can pick up the stop, tail and turn lights in the trunk. Once you've established a current source a 7 pin socket with mounting bracket and pigtail should work.
