If you don't like the red 3rd brake, you could always fit one of my clear ones
   Perfect match with my clear fronts......

the third brake light on cars in front of me have saved me so many times. their tails and brake lights are hardly different (on some cars), and seeing that third light helped out so much. you don't have to be staring at the car to notice that the brakes are on, just look for that light.
