3rd Brake Light

I can't seem to find a source for frenched 3rd brake lights. I want to put one under the back window on my 56. I'm also interested in replacing the parking lights with something amber, rectangular and frenched into the gravel pan.

Links anyone?

Here is one from Parr for $59.95.
Super bright red 10" 12 volt l.e.d. strip ideal for mounting a thrird brake light into the body. Comes with stainless mounting plate that can be welded into steel car or bonded into fiberglass car. Instructions included.


I would try Hagen's for the turn signals and other 3rd brake light options. http://www.haganstreetrods.com/

Randy, Have you looked at the "Line of Fire?" It fits under your tailgate so that you don't have to cut any holes into the cab. It also serves as blinkers and emergency flashers. Good luck, Jag

I am using one from Watson's Streetworks. Haven't put it in yet, but am going to put it in under the big back window. Best wishes on your hunt.

Randy, I've use these guys on several occasions. They specialize in street rods and customs. They have what you want and decent prices.

Thanks, folks. These are some good sites. I'll need to research them a bit more. Very interesting.

Any way I go, it looks like I'll be talking more than a few bucks, tho.

I had a very good experience dealing with Lamberts.

Good old boy and his wife. Plain spoken, helpful, honest and good product. No online ordering system - you order over the phone.
