Or after disconnecting the light and being asked by all your friends why your third/fourth brake light is broken you can visit a local interior shop and get some supplies and be creative. This is what I did..

interesting... after you take out (or unplug) the third brake light, theres no warning indicator light in the dash warning the driver??? I thought this would light up since its like a rear tail light that is out... hmmmmm

Yeah, I was wondering this too, Just went outside and did it myself. Now to the uphostery store to get some fabric to make a cover plate.

They did this to my coupe... cut out the brake light cause they couldnt get it off. Thanks to this thread I took it off myself went back and they re-tinted the back for me at no cost...
