3rd Brake light out 2006 H3

[crop000]

Has anybody had to replace the 3rd brake light bulbs ? Half of mine went out, I didn't know it was led until I took the light unit out. Not sure if the bulbs can be replaced or if the whole unit will need to be replaced.

The whole unit I was told... had mine replaced under warranty

I got this response from GM parts

442,
For that price swap it out with any oem replacement bulb and socket if needed. Any auto dept should carry something in the correct size. Pull the lenze and measure it for dimension. Advance auto and even wal mart have items that should fit the bill.

Good luck!

Hey W that's a good option

I think ill wait till they all go out.

I hate taking panels off even though I usually get them off without busting off a clip. bad design

Looks like 2010 had replacable bulbs .
