factory 3rd brake light? or not April 24, 2006, 05:09:46 AM I was curious my 84 mercury cougar had a 3rd brake light..... i dont see it on pictures of 84 mercury cougars nor in the options on coolcats. It was held on by a double sided black foam to the rear window. Anyone think this was stock or done later? Eric Quote Selected

factory 3rd brake light? or not Reply #4 – April 24, 2006, 11:45:10 AM It was government law for 1986 models. Yours sounds aftermarket, I remember (back in the day) everyone was selling those stupid things to retrofit older cars and people bought them like popcorn at a movie. Quote Selected
