LED 3rd Brake Light

Awesome! I bought mine off Ebay which may be why it didn't work ha.

Seems like the cheap eBay units are kind of a crap shoot, not the first time I've heard of issues like this. Just FYI, both of these Anzo units are 100% plug and play with no issues. I run the smoked one on my red truck.

Those look so much higher quality than what I received. I will certainly look into purchasing one of those!

You might find a better price on Amazon than APWH

$55+ on Amazon for the spyder.

Mine did the same thing!! Dont return it!! Try and unhook the yellow wire? from the connector. I unhooked one of those wires and it worked perfectly since

Same here. I had to disconnect one of the wires. Can't remember which one.

Yellow wire is what makes the cargo light only work when the driver door is open. I had to disconnect the yellow wire because my footwell lights would stay dimly lit except for when I would press the brakes. Might have something to do with the footwell lights being LEDs also. So now my cargo light can be turned on anytime I want it to, bummer lol

I had to pull the yellow wire out of the harness on the light side of mine to keep the brake light from staying lit all the time. BUT, my cargo lights will not go off unless I turn the switch off on my dash. If the switch is on, my cargo lights will stay on no matter what- even though the dome light and everything goes off. ???
Other than that it works great.
