Hi All,

The brake lights within the spoiler are starting to blow/not work.
Is there anywhere online I can buy a replacement light from or is my best bet to contact a Mitsu dealer?

Thanks in advance,
chris b

Aren't they LEDs? Should never wear out if this is so, bound to be a wiring problem.

Hi MadMax,

Yes they're LEDs although after taking the spoiler off to get access to the screws and remove the spoiler brake light, it's all one unit. From what I could see the LEDs are individual although it looks as though they are soldered into a circuit board.
I tried prying open the brake light unit without success, it's all glued together. The only way to replace an LED is to replace the whole thing. If there is another way to do this please let me know?

Regards,
