3rd brake light

Does anyone know if you can install the 3rd brake light from a raptor on F350 and what would be involved in doing this

Bump to the top.

I am interested in this also.

I have the Raptor third brake light in hand and it is a little larger than the SD third brake light. Its going to take a little trimming and require drilling new holes for the screws. Plus running a wire with Key On power for the marker lights.

Anyone done this conversion or have a template for the F-150 third brake light cut out?

Thanks in Advance,
Bob

Got pics of the raptor light? I know the Sd one but i'll gladly help figure this out.

Actually I'll check out my buddies raptor at work today and check my truck when i get home as well.

There are aftermarket options that are under 100 bucks and don't include cutting your truck.

I was wanting to add the three LED marker lights that are on the Raptor third brake light. I am on my third under tailgate light bar and trying to find a way to put them higher. Have replaced the factory style once and then with the Recon unit twice. Not so much failures from abuse/damage as water/weather related failures.

I have the Recon LED third brake light and have thought of modifying it with 3 red LEDs.

After looking at them on my 04 and my buddy's raptor personally I agree that the aftermarket ones are more worth it IMO but if your dead se on it then it looks like they screw holes are very close or even the same. If they are the same your only issue would be sealing behind the light.
