    I have quite a few smoked, clear, and red 3rd brake light lenses that have been modified to work with 1st and 2nd gens. NO dropping headliner. NO breaking the main seal people are so fearful of. And I include flush filler caps for the screw holes on the 1st gens.

    These are all brand new and are hand-modified to fit the OEM brake light housing and will work with almost all aftermarket brake lights as well.


    Installation:

    -2nd gens have a simple replacement process - just remove the 2 screws in the OEM housing and put this lens in place of the old lens. Use a bead of silicone in the housing channel before placing lens. 5 minutes tops.

    Man, I know just bought your 1st iteration pod design, but these are cool as well. I'll take one smoked.

    I'm not at all against selling you one, but you know they won't fit the brake light design you purchased? :D

    Haha, yep. After looking at it, may be getting cold feet on replacing the stocker.  Will rock this for a while till I decide what to do.

    It's so much easier to install on 2nd gens though! First gens suck getting those bolts out. I'll have plug-and-play available as an option in the next week or two for those who select 3x the same colors and a few other nifty upgrade options.

    Correct. Or preferred by the people behind you really, ha. If using this lens I personally would paint some of the OEM chrome on the brake mount black like around the screw holes, but that's just because I don't like chrome.

    EDIT: only for the smoked and clear lenses. the red lens can use the OEM bulbs. forgot to add that

    You can enjoy a cup of coffee stress free now knowing you have a place to rest your stirrer while you sit back and admire your new brake light lens, too!
    Going out Monday my dude!

    You send it out via Pony Express? Or did the USPS deliver to the wrong address?
