Opinions on 3rd brake light replacement
So I am tired of looking at my factory 3rd brake light that has like 4 cracks in it from a hail storm. I am wanting to get this one, it is Eagle Eyes brand, which from my past buying experience, is a very good aftermarket brand. With my taillights tinted like they are, I think this would flow very well. Whats your thoughts?

If it's an LED type, make sure it has a load resister built in. Without one (if LED), it can cause your cruise control to stop working.
LED's in the tail lights brake/parking lamp or third brake light are a known issue with cruise control (search it here) failures. Since LED's draw very little voltage/amperage, this "messes" with the cruise controls ability to detect the expected resistence in this circuit when the conventional bulbs are in place.
Most aftermarket companies are aware of this, and have installed a load resister in their circuit board. Be sure yours has one.
