Replacing Third Brake Light
I have a 94 LT1 and the third brake light has two small cracks in it so I want to replace it. I found a replacement at ZIP for only $29.00 Is this a major job or can anyone do it. Has anyone done this and if so any tips?

Open the hatch and the screws are right there.

The light housing, and the light are seperate. If you're just wanting to chage the housing, just take the light out, change the housing, and put the light back in. No muss, no fuss. Wiring won't even be an issue
