Advice on 3rd brake light or not

The 'dump truck' has 6 brake lights so is that 4 third brake lights?

6? You are at least 3 times as safe.

Didn't know that. Maybe the lid was replaced but I haven't found any dangling plugs that would connect the 3rd light, though I haven't specifically looked.

Did 88a have 4 or 5 luggage rack pieces. Tou can see mone only had 4.

Interesting. Too bad some idiot removed them (not me). God I hate people.

The lid I acquired for a spare is correct for my year, in that case. However, the left corner was damaged and the repair was bondo on that I found as I was wire brushing the rust around the seams (because the seem sealer failed). My decklid is perfect, other than the bondo job on the holes so...what to do. The lid was essentially free - I was after the hood since mine had a 4" cowl hood, which is ridiculous, not to mention it blocks your view. It's a nice Cervinis hood, so it gets sold or traded (maybe for some gt40 heads and intake).

Maybe I can source the luggage pieces....thought I doubt it because the ones on the replacement are riveted in place, and I assume there is some sort of bracket underneath those that is secure to the deck somehow.

The other thing is I need some sort of sealer for the luggage rack pieces - I'd imagine it was rubber back in the day.
