i have an 87 camaro lt with the third brake light in the spoiler. does anyone know of replacement led's for this?

 

no one? just wanting to know if anyone makes an LED that fits into the factory light socket.

 

Im pretty sure they do. Im not sure what size the bulbs are but more than likely they are made. Someone should have the size.

 

I rigged an LED setup to mine.. don't have the pics to show right now though, but will soon enough. I just used some LED's in the and resistors. I say "just" but my brother made it for me with LEDs connected to the stock connections and connected it to a ???K heat disapating resistor. If your interested in it though, i'll ask him about the specifics.

Note however, the third brakelight I am referring to is in mounted in my spoiler, not in the hatch glass, and its the standard spoiler, not the high rise.

 

mine is in the spoiler as well, and the regular spoiler, not the high rise. i am really not looking to make my own though, i would much rather just buy replacements.

 

if you just want a replacement led "bulb" set up http://www.superbrightleds.com/1157.htm i got some blue 194s for under my white face guages- they are pretty bright. i would say get the highest count LED you can afford. just get your bulb # and match it up- also get red somtimes the clear makes it look orange- good luck!

 

Not an aftermarket/replacement unit.This LED unit is from a later model ASTRO van.The spoiler is the 3rd gen with the integral brake light(BIG rectangular one).The astro van LED plugs into the stock f-body connector.Just take both male&female plugs from the astro & swap the one on the LED harness to match with the camaro plug.I only used the LEDs & most of the housing.I cut out the lense & made one from a red see thru plastic clip board.Most of the cut out from the stock 3rd brake light was filled in with fiberglass.This was one afternoons work.Best part is the astro LED unit was only $4 from the junkyard,plus there are 42 or 44(i forget) LEDs on there ..

 

another view.That i know though no makes a replacement LED bulb,i tried finding some.194s are different design.Plus the stock lense is too thick & will distort the LEDs light.Let alone trying to fit one thru the small hole for the stock bulbs.....

 

so i am pretty limited then aren't i? that does look pretty sweet, and really close to what i am looking to do, i just want maybe to or three rows of those, not just the one. When i apply the brakes, i want people to know!

i may look into the astro van thing, what year did you grab that off of? i have a few extra spoiler center peices to play with so, i might screw around with it a little.

 

I dont know the year,But they are mounted above the rr doors on the roof.Not too hard to spot them......
