I want to get the 3rd brake light for the MX-3, but I'm not sure where I can get one from.

Can anyone tell me where to look?

Thank you

think wingswest do a spoiler with a 3rd brakelight on it.

CVlick the links page on the actuall mx3 site, and look under wingswest spoilers.....

Thats only off the top of my head though!

Trade you for a pic with standard 3rd brake light? E-spec doesn't have that.

The Euro spec Mazda MX-3 definitely didn't come with the third rear brake light. I've seen loads of MX-3s in the UK and not one of them has it.

The Official Mazda MX-3 brochure also shows the cars without this.

And my 1998 RS - one of the last models made, on which Mazda graciously added disc brakes all around - normally not included in the RS models - doesn't have a third brake light either.

The only exceptions would be the imported EUNOS versions of the MX-3, imported from Japan.
They might just have that elusive third brake light.

I added one to my UK car, have built an mdf shelf for speakers and when i did it i fixed a 3rd light to the top of it so it shows through in about the same place as the US pic there. really easy to do.

If my digicam wasnt stubbornly refusing to talk to PC then i would upload a pic.

I MAY have an extra 3rd brake light. I'll look through my shed of parts when I get a chance.
