Can anyone tell me if there are other vehicles that use the same third brake light as my '05 X.
I looked at a '99 Ford F150 rear light that looked like it might be the same (saw it in a parking lot) but I didnt put a tape measure on it.
If the F150 brake light is the same I think the '97-'03 lights are all the same.
If anyone can confirm this it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I know the one from a Lightning will work. But do not know how that differs from the other F-150s.

There was a discussion about the CHMSL (Center Mounted High Stop Lamp or Light) being swapped out with the one from the Lightning over at FTE a year or so ago.

Also, I found (in that thread) that our own beloved LANDYOT (another Ken ) has the Lightning CHMSL on his Excursion.

I found that light on ebay and that is the mod I had in mnd.
Im looking for something a little more stock looking with the cover. I found a clear LED assembly with the lens cover Im trying to figure out weather it will fit before I order.
Thanks for searching out that post.

That's pretty cool.

Look out for shoddy quality however. Make sure you know the Warranty & return policy.

They are both nice looking lights. I just am not sure about the need for the cargo lamps back there. Guess it could aid in hooking up a trailer at night.









Hmmm....now [i]there's[/i] an excuse for the wife!

When I get some extra time, I plan to rewire my cargo lights so they will burn with the reverse lights

Isn't there a ski resort on one of Hawaii's peaks?

No ski resorts but there are companies that will take you skiing when there is snow up there.

No snowmobiles...we have Jet Skis.

We DO have horses (2nd largest Ranch in the US is on the Big island: Parker Ranch) that we have to pull around. I have 3 myself.

Alright....I think I found the lights.
The '97-'03 F150 lights as well as the Lightning Lights look to be all the same. Im ordering a set and will let the board know how it goes.

Thanks for the help.
