    @MESO How difficult is the install on a 3rd gen?
    Mine just sprung a leak and i'm out of warranty by 6.5 months, going to hit up the dealer but I need a back up plan if the dealer won't help me out.

    Fairly easy if you know how to wire, and even easier since your oem one is broken, you don’t need to drop the headliner, just smash the oem one.

    Exactly. The 2nd gen MESO light eliminates the need to remove the entire housing and keeps the factory sealing in place ensuring it's water tight. There are no wires unless you remove the housing (I'd avoid this if possible) so I'd suggest buying the MESO plugs if available or another adapter.

    Another user sent me these and they look to be a great alternative -
    https://www.theretrofitsource.com/3157-t10-led-male-pigtails.html

    Now please check to ensure everything looks correct. I believe the OEM 3rd brake light bulb is 168 which is a T10 style bulb so it all looks good to me.

    Yeah, what he said. I’d be down for some 2nd gen lighting.

    Honestly, I'd be willing to pre-pay or put down money to get this going. Interior lights and the 3rd brake lights.

    He doesn't do pre-pay or money down. There were issues in the past about that and I don't believe he wants to deal with potential issues.
