    Has anybody here replaced the 3rd brake light on a 2018 Crewmax? I thought it was gonna be a pretty simple install... just remove a few screws and pop the new one back on. I purchased the Anzo 3rd brakelight from Realtruck.com but I didn’t realize that I needed to pull down the headliner just to install the new one. Does anyone have any pictures or videos of your install?

    Flux capacitor!
    I posted some instructions on how to replace the third brake light on the link listed above. The headliner does have to drop to get at the third brake light. Make sure and wear latex or rubber gloves before you touch your hood liner. It’s easy to leave stains on the fabric if you have any dirt on your hands.

    Yeah I think bulbs replace with just taking the back off. But swapping the whole thing means dropping the headliner. :eek2:
