Hey, I bought my brake light from a local FLAPS, it cost about $40
here, but the name of the store doesnt matter, cause I live in
Norway, and you most probably live in USA. The glare from the brake
light isnt annoying, even at night, cause it is a red light, which
is not blinding. If you still want another type, maybe the
roofmounted style? EVs have those, they are sold as kits for early
European EVs that didnt come with them when new. I even got the p/ns
for you. Lamphousing: 701 945 213 , bulbholder: 1H6 945 121 , lens:
1H6 945 131 In addition comes a few screws and nuts. Good luck!
