Dealership wants 200.00 for the part and 300.00 for labor tax and disposal.
Anyone have one or know where to get one?

WTF?! $500?! Please run from that dealer. Here is another option for $120:

You might as well upgrade to the 2009 SL65 part for $132 while you are at it:

The Third Brake Light for 09 SL63 is Clear-Smoked, instead of the usual boring, flat red color.
The color is Dark-Smoked for SL65.
Check out the Workshop Instructions below and fix it yourself. Save 300 bucks and "dispose" the faulty part yourself
. $500 my a$$. These dealers are crazy. 'Cos we drive a high end car doesn't mean we are stupid.
