I just wanted to start a discussion where we show our aftermarket 3rd brake lights off for others to see what's out there and how they look along with how reliable it has been.


I'll start with one thing is I'll never trust the weather stripping just cause of horror stories I've heard where others would have issues with water getting into their cab, I came across some solutions where you tape around the opening and leave room for the harness to fit threw afterwards which has worked great for me (I even double taped, pictures below). Not only that but I replaced the gasket on my 3rd brake light with a more quality brand, but didn't bother to with the morimoto light.


My first aftermarket 3rd brake light was the NJSBYL LED 3rd brake light, odd name but this was an Amazon find - I got this before the morimoto even had one and thought it looked pretty nice actually and wasn't expensive at all plus has no issues for the 9 months I used it:




Now I have the Morimoto X3B LED brake light which I think has a really nice housing, if it weren't for that I would've probably kept with my 1st decision.

Old thread but here we go.... Looking for a recommendation for a third brake light. 22 Laramie. Reading some people have had issue when replacing with aftermarket LED lights that it effects key fob function? Can anyone comment on this or share your experience ? Yes i tried the search function
