Third brake light that matches dark tailamps?

Anybody know of any companies that could make one?

Sort of like the Regal GS third brake light.

I'm not big into smoking the lights because it's still not the same as the tailights.

I'm talking about an actual light though that is clear and not red. Like the third brake light on the regal.

There's none yet... Hoping DiodeDynamics or Oracle make them soon. Even if it's like upcoming LED side markers from oracle where they can paint the outside edges and clear or smoke over the LED's would be nice.

Corvette's have an optional 3rd brake light to match their clear/Smoked OEM tail lights, So maybe GM will do the Camaro's too soon?

See that would be perfect.

I have my third brake light getting done as we speak. Paint (son of a gun metal gray) on outside smoke tint where LED shines through. It should match the Oracle side markers painted with tint pretty close. I'll take some pics and post here when its finished.

I remember reading somewhere else that the 3rd brake light is sealed into the trunk lid, so this would be a very hard DIY job to get it out and then get the new one in and bonded correctly and watertight.

Not saying it can't be done, but doesn't sound plug and play like the main rear light clusters
