@mark1a I have got the wife to put her foot on the break. But the brightness I don’t think it’s different. Just the light colour is. So it feels different. I’m say no there isn’t any brightness difference.
OK thanks Ryan

Once I’ve found a solution for the 3rd brake light you can probably have this one. As you say it will look better on the Blackburry defo.

I have used Lamin-x film to tint the rear lights on my previous car. This might be an option, but its hard to tell from the pictures which shade you may need. I have used 6% and it gave me nice dark-ish red.

Thanks for the offer, but I have a tailgate not barn doors, so I expect fit is different.

Yeah it is. I forgot, I did know that.

@Giddy
I have thought about film. I have a couple of issues with that.
1 over time it will Matt and need replacement time and time again.
2 the shade will be total guess work.
3 I only need 1 inch x 3 inch bit.
So what I’m possibly looking at is putting some black paint in so gloss to tint it that way so it stays glossy and I can keep it glossy.

Been having a little trouble with my folding caddy life mirrors, since I done the LEDs in the door cards. I guess it was when I took the plugs out the module. They were working fine on the switch but intermittent on the key. So I thought I would see if I opened and closed them, relearn like you do with the windows. So I did it 3 times. So far works amazing has done for 4 days now. I don’t know if this is common knowledge but it’s worked for me.

Done couple things today. Before lunch.
Silicon hose between bulkhead and B pillar stop the new squeak. Hidden away fingers crossed.
Tinted rear reflectors fitted. Soooooooo much dirt. That must of saved some MPG.
Done few stone chips on the front. Not a lot today but those fussy little things you want to do but can’t be arsed.

So as you know I put in a van x third break light and I didn’t like it. To black didn’t look like the factory rear lights. So today I got some smokey tint.
First go I used the heat method. It left micro bubbles. So I used the soapy water method with heat. Which worked better.
If you look close on the finish edge. Just left it to cool and it’s stuck the edges properly.
