Rear brake light cracking

[stevedavo86]

Noticed lately my brake light on the boot is beginning to crack particularly at the corners....looking to get a red one to match the red car...can anyone advise best / cheapest place to purchase and are they easy to install yourself?

Thanks

Red lenses are more expensive than clear ones, but it has to be red on a red Zed

I followed this video - very simple DIY job:

I went to dutch dealer as it was cheaper than online retailers. €70 or thereabouts.
I also protected the new one by wrapping the mating surfaces in electrical tape and not tightening the screws too tight.

I got a bargain of a deal off Gumtree, a brand new set of rear lights, 3rd brake light and side indicators, for £80 all in. The guy had bought his 04 new and changed all the above for different lights. He put all the original ones in boxes and forgot they were in his loft.
