Auto Buero brake light
I ordered this off Amazon. I couldn't find any that actually would plug and play with the Braptor. My guess is that it is because the Braptor has 3 wires and one of those is for the wide body lights. There are 2 obstacles that are fairly easy to overcome when installing this. First is that the 3 lug holes are slightly off as the Braptor lugs are different from the stock Bronco. That means you have to widen the holes for it to fit. Yes you can force it on as is but it will cause the lugs to move and then you can't mount the spare back on. Ask me how I know that. he 2snd obstacle is the wiring. I did not want to put the oem brake light back on and that was to increase visibility out the back window. Removing the OEM light is pretty straight forward. 4 mounting screws and several to open it up to get to the wiring. I unplugged the connectors at the top of the OEM light. Then I opened up the the covering of the wires to expose the 3 wires. I cut off the plugs on the ring kit below where the 2 plugs wiring merges and there are 2 wires. On the OEM wiring there are 3. You can ignore the OEM blue wire. I then connected the OEM and kit black to black and yellow to white and sealed them back up.
It works great. If needed you could put the OEM kit back on and it both would work.
