Rear Brake Light

Hey guys,

Gotta Black TSX w/ a Spolier so I have the brake light on the wing,
My Question is if anyone knows how hard it is to get to the original rear brake light, Im a Volenteer Fireman, so i was attcually thinking I could take that out and maybe replace it w/ a Blue LED Strip, either gonna do that or put the led strip across the top of the back window,

Anyone know how hard this would be to do?


Thanks

I think it's all pretty well integrated into the rear deck. If you remove it, you'll probably have an ugly space instead.

And that wouldn't be a very good location to mount any kind of lighting. Depending on the angle, it can be very easily obscured by the wing spoiler, which is why Acura specifies a light on the spoiler to replace it. Warning lights of any kind should be mounted where they won't be obscured.

to the best of my knowledge the rear brake light (in the window) doesnt light up with the spoiler (the spoiler light replaces it). Do you have a way to turn it on?
