2004- SL500
New Member

Hi All,

I just joined this Forum after I bought my 2004 - SL500, i've seen so many interesting topics already and a lot helpful people.

I am actually looking to replace the " Third Break Light" thats located in the trunk, I have read some other people suggestions to put the 07-08 ones since its more clear. any suggestions from you guys is very much appreciated and where can i find this part. ??

thank you,

W.Kattan

Thank you guys for the reply, i guess i'm another fan of the red light and i think it goes better with the color of my car and more classy.

rocker4488: thanks for the information, parts.com is only selling parts for 2007 model and up, do you know if they are the same and if it fits properly.

thanks you gents.
