3rd brakelight/cargo light

My '93 Ranger had a cargo light on the 3rd brakelight. My 2002 Edge does not. Can I swap out the stock one on the 2002 for a stock one with the cargo lamp? Are all 2002 Rangers missing this light? I'd imagine I can find one relatively easy at a bone yard. Will this be a direct swap, no wiring to deal with... kinda like plug and play?

Thanks for the help,

Howard

If the cargo light is not there, the wire to power it (from the instrument dimmer switch on my "99) is probably not there. It will be easy to pull the stock unit and look for an unused wire. It would probably be fairly easy to add a seperate switch and wire to power a replacement unit. Good luck.

Thanks Dono, I know it'll be easy, but I thought maybe one of you all knew, and could clue me in.

I'll let you all know what I find out in there.
