Carbon Fiber Hatch Brake Light **Searched**

I have a 92 gs-r and want to re place my hatch with a carbon fiber hatch. My question is, with the carbon fiber hatches not coming with a spoiler, would I havr to get a brake light for the back of the hatch? Im assuming so, just asking in case im wrong.

the third brake light is in the window, not the hatch. Your spoiler has a brake light and you could get someone to drill a hole in the hatch for the spoiler if you want. If not, the glass will have the third brake light. Sorry but im answering drunk so bear with me.

Not sure how strict they are in NY, but usually you can get away with not having a third brake light.

Granted, if someone rear ends you they could use that as an excuse.

LS/Vtecstitch= The GSR’s dont have brake light’s in the windows, Standard was the spoiler with 3rd brake light.

And yea, I dont know how strict they are over there with the 3rd brake light law so i would say if you want a 3rd brake light you’ll have to do some drilling for a spoiler or find a way to get a 3rd brake light to go somewhere in the window :shrug:

The first sets of CF hatches had the hole already. Now you would have to drill your own, but I wouldnt suggest drilling into CF or putting a Spoiler of stock color on it. Just get an LS window, or ditch the 3rd brake light all together

really, i didn’t know i needed the third brake light, i was planning to take off my spoiler(GS-R), hmm

dont know why you would get a ticket for no having a third brake light…there are cars that were manufactured between 90-93 with out third brake lights…

well in new jersey u need to have a thrid brake light…so i would do what a previous poster suggested and get a ls window with the brake light on it

Thanks for the help. My gsr did come with a third brake light on the spoiler (In case I didn’t mention it before) Do you think getting a LS third brake light for my window would be hard to install?

cant you use something like this or no? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Wink-Universal-3rd-Brake-Light-All-Cars-Trucks_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33716QQihZ019QQitemZ7997346886QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWD1V

so your getting a cf hatch and keeping the window glass? unless your just going for the look. it would defeat the porpose of a cf to keep the glass i think and a waste of money. just get the rear FAL window and get the 3rd light from a ls/rs/gs and drill the holes. thats what i plan on doing but im keeping my gsr spoiler. and yes the gsr did not come with the 3rd light in the window, it came on the spoiler. also there are ppl that will tell you not to get a cf hatch because ideally you want to make your car 50/50 as in weight from the fron to back. my 2 cents good luck. also i have a 3rd brake light i can sell to you really cheap :giggle:
