3rd brake light
Just been told today my 3rd brake lights only 1/2 lighting up (no idea how long it's been like this )
Anyone Any idea if it's a wiring issue or do I need to replace the whole unit?

I believe you have to change the whole unit

Cheers for that, might get a clear one (will feel like a new mod that way)

I think the clear ones look great on a silver coloured zeds, and they are cheaper then the red ones as well

I don't think so Andy, I too was wanting one as I think the clear ones were about £55

Re: 3rd brake light
Awwww shame, guess I better start shopping around. I seem to have a lot of little niggles with my car at the moment (all about the £50 mark)
Could do with £500 to get everything the way I want.
Thanks for your input
