Can someone please inform me on how to install a third brake light overlay... I got one the other day from Grafixwerks.com and the instructions don't help at all.. It's the one that mounts inside the car... Thanks for the help!~Jon

You have to remove the cover first.Then take out the philips screws holding the light assy.Pull the light assy out and that should give you access to the glass to put the overlay on.I would clean the glass first.

or you could just pop open the glass hatch instead of removing the whole brake assembly.

Popping the glass works, but you need tiny fingers. I think he is referring to the little plastic piece that hooks to the glass itself. I pull mine off each time I wash the windows to clean it really good.
