I bought the plug and play model you recommended and couldn't be happier. I deleted the OEM 3rd light and did not have to modify the center hole size. I appreciate your research and video.

We had our Wildtrak exactly three weeks before some goofball hit us from behind at a red light. I'm finally getting it out of the shop next week with a new rear tail gate (spare tire took the impact and warped the tail gate). I would love to get one of these !!!

Thanks for the video! I bought one but waiting for it to warm up just a little before install.

I have the same exact light. You can absolutely delete the third break light over the tire and it will work. You have to check your states laws however, because most states require you to have a third light that is specifically above the ones to the left and right. Other than that, you’re square.

Thanks for confirming! I'll definitely check the CA DMV site before I do anything. 👍🏻

Thanks for the info Jake! Did you just tape up the unused plug for the factory brake light and stuff it in the spare tire mount compartment? Any clarity here would be much appreciated.

Really nice video. I've been enjoying all your videos. You are clear and eaay to follow. One question--is the light still working, all perfect now?
@broncobebop Жыл бұрын
Thanks! Yes, the light is still working just fine. 🙂

@@broncobebop Awesome. I think I'm going to order one, too. Some people are reporting fitting problems, and I'm older myself and not that handy with cars, but it sounds like everyone's not encountering those issues. Btw, love the intro --one of the very best I have ever seen! And the whole wife motif with the thumbs up or down. The music and lyrics are great and relaxing. You have one of the only two themes on KZbin that I watch every time. lol

FYI, I did have fit issues. The center hole was too small and I did have to trim it a bit. I mentioned it in the video, but didn't show it. Glad you like the videos!

@@broncobebop I was just rewatching and saw that! I guess I had forgotten. I'll set aside some extra time for it. How long did the install take you total time?
@broncobebop Жыл бұрын
Not sure. It seemed pretty quick. Maybe 30 minutes? It definitely took me longer because I had to film it.
@jeffwilcox8830 Жыл бұрын
Just out of curiosity, what did you use to make the hole bigger? Assuming a Dremel? What bit for it? Did you ever determine if it still works with deleting the factory light?
@broncobebop Жыл бұрын
I just shaved the edge using a utility knife. It was pretty quick. I haven't checked, but I think someone on here did confirm that it will still work with the third brake light removed.

Great vid , but u should not have had to ream the holes out . Im a big fan of saftey , but here in the NY, NJ area we have alot of idiots. They will panic if they see that light up and not realize its a brake light. Not sure if im gonna go that way but it looks sharp and is worth the money
