Question

What are the packaging contents? Does it come with the bolts? or do you need to swap them from the old third brake light? - by Jon (Saratoga, CA)

Answer

Think of it like this: You go to the Toyota Parts Department and get a third brake light. This comes with everything that the OEM third brake light would come with except the LEDs go all the way across.

The OEM brake light has bolts molded into the plastic, and so does this one.

To remove your old brake light you will have to unscrew 4 nuts. You will set these nuts aside, and then use them to secure this new brake light.

Here is a photo of the bolt molded into the plastic as well as the adhesive weather stripping:

Question

What is the difference between "Regular" and "Red"? Can I assume "Regular" is clear?

Answer

Regular looks exactly like the stock third brake light, except the full thing lights up.

Red is the same color as the plastic of the stock tail lights.

Smoked looks tinted, as if you were to put a tint film or a light spray of paint over the regular.
