Rear Deck/3rd brake light

Does anyone know where I can get a 99+ rear deck and 3rd brake light?
What's a fair price to pay for the item...thanks

W212 & W210

the dealer sells them for about $800 last time I checked for both the light and the deck.
Others have had luck finding them at salvage yards that specialize in mercedes but I haven't found any.

Good luck. If you find some let me know, I need a black one.

Thanks for the update guys.....the pre-99 3rd brake lights look cheap and ugly.

I'll keep looking....maybe non benz salvage yard might be willing.

The entire rear deck gets replaced so that is why it costs so much.
