I love my old '08 Ford Escape. It's one of those cars that's so good, you want to hang onto it forever. Sadly, though, time marches on, so upkeep becomes an issue. A while back, I noticed that several of the bulbs in my high (third) brake light were out and those remaining looked old and dim. (No doubt original equipment. Not bad for 16-year-old incandescents!) For safety's sake, it was time for an upgrade. A moment on Amazon pointed me here. There are some similarities and differences between this and the original, the main being the bright LED lights, which outnumber the old bulbs. They're also MUCH brighter! The second is the electrical connector...but that becomes apparent when installing it. Speaking of installation, that's extremely easy! (It would've been easier if my old window struts could keep the glass off of my head! Guess what I'll be replacing next!) Two screws and gentle prying popped off the old unit, which was only hanging on by the electrical clip and the washer spray hose. The clip is easily removed, but the rubber washer coupler was a bit more stubborn. Go gently here! I used a flat, thin screwdriver to gently push it up and off. Happily, it obliged. Had it split, I would've had an additional problem to fix before I could've finished. (It would've been nice if a spare had been included in the package.) With the old unit off, and having stuck on the self-adhesive rubber gasket, I noticed that the electrical connector that had plugged directly into the old light was now going to connect to a connector at the end of some wiring on the new one. Once oriented correctly, it's a snap. (Literally!) Next, a small gasket goes behind the new rear window spray nozzle and it snaps into place easily. After sliding the washer tube onto the back of the nozzle, it's time to install the light onto the tailgate. Again, two screws and it's done! There's even two tiny new rubber gaskets for those, too, although they did NOT include new screws...so I had to use my old, rusty ones. No biggie. With the sun beating down on an unusually warm February fake Spring, the LEDs shone bright n' clear. (I did this alone, though, so the photo just shows the new light as installed, unlit.) Total install time: ten minutes. A nice upgrade, and it makes my night driving just a little bit safer.

I installed this 3rd brake light on a 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo 3.7L. Instructions were to switch out the washer piece (Red piece on right side) pops right out and exchange with the Black washer piece in the old 3rd brake light and connects to the house. It also comes with a new adhesive strip. So happy it fit and is working great!

Its a nice third light eazy to install good quality and price

Was no sprayer nozzle "issue" as mentioned elsewhere. Hose pulled off the OEM high light and slipped onto the new light nozzle tube. Hose is just friction fit; no connector ring to loosen. Nozzle was already installed so the confusion about taking the "old nozzle off the old light and putting it on the new light" is probably just AI "B-S".

I really like the light.It's nice looking

Fits and works so far hopefully last like original one

Bought this a couple years ago. Looks amazing and functions as advertised. Have had no issues. Easy to install. Seal quality is good, no leaks.

Works great for a few days and then the cargo light starts coming on every time you press the brake. I bought two of them and they both had the same issue.

Good product great look
