i was wanting to shave the luggage rack on my trunk lid off and didn't know for sure i would get a ticket for not having my third break light or do i need to come up with a new one some where on the back?

 

No, you dont need a third brake light. You will be fine ticket-wise without it

 

actually im pretty sure he will need one to pass inspection, so it could be some sort of violation, in fact I pretty sure I read somewhere the whole reason you have that luggage rack was b/c they made 3rd brake lights a requirment

 

I dont know where youre from, but it wouldnt matter here....

 

put in the back window on the package shelf.

 

I know I wanted to get rid of my third brake light but from what I was told is that if your car came with a third brake light it had to have a working third brake light. Whether its in the spoiler or in the car it had to work. But that's the law in Wisconsin I don't know what it is in other states.

i found an led strip that might fit in the gap between my trunk lid and my tail lights you thank that'll fly

 

It might- but it has to work with the brakes. Again I don't know what the laws are in your state. Maybe call your local police station to find out.

I know the reason for the third light is becasue Elizabeth Dole thought we needed one.

I am not sure what year it became manditory (I want to say 1991, but not sure).

 

there are no laws requiring third brake light on passenger vehicles.... thats quoted from my brother in law whos a police officer
