Spoiler Brake Light
Does anyone know how to replace bulbs in the spoiler brake light? I have one of the bulbs out in the middle, near the left side of the spoiler. I saw that there are some screws on the bottom there, is that all I need to take out? Also, what kind of bulbs go in there? Is it something that a mechanical dummy like me can fix?

They are LED's. They are not individually replaceable. You replace them as a unit (the whole red part).
You'll just have to deal with 1 light being burnt out if you are out of warranty....

The same thing happened to me and since I have OVER 12,000 miles on my Tib, the dealer is being an assclown and won't fix it! Oh well..I wanted to put in a blue strip anyway. Anyone know where I can get a different color LED strip that will fit in there? Thanx.

There are clear LED's that light up red. I think that is what he means.
I have a white car..and I too sometimes dream of a custom clear LED third brake light.
The part costs something like $100 from the dealer. Sam can probably cut than by 50% if not more. To make the clear part would be a bitch...but on a white car...it would look awesome!

I was looking under the spoiler and noticed how easy it would be to change that light today too. Clear with red LED lights would look nice. I wish they would blink "one-at-a-time" or I guess you could say like Christmas lights, you know what I'm saying?
