Spoiler 3rd brake light?
Tuesday, April 22, 2008 7:11 AM
How do I take the brake light out of the spoiler? I took the screws out but I can not pull it out far enough to see if there is a harness to disconnect, do I need to take the spoiler off?

Help...

youll need to unhook the bulb, but that should be it. pry at it to get it started and then just pull it a little way out to get to the bulb. at least thats how it was on my 97z

Sorry I should have been a bit more specific its the 2000+Z spoiler with the LED light, so there is no "bulb" to take out. I have it pulled out so I can see a little bit of wire but not a lot. It feels like if I pull it anymore somethings going to break.

There should be a connector on the inside of your trunk lid. Thats how mine is connected. Just pop the trunk.

I have an '03 and I have seen it in a '95-'99 and should be the same in the '00-'02's, the connector is in the truck just above the lock cylinder.
