So, as I pass the time until I pickup my TJ tomorrow, I'm looking at the seller's pix for about the 300th time. Finally it hit me what is missing in the rear pic below - no third brake light, or at least none that shows. I've seen the LED circles on some wranglers, among other things. Not looking for anything "trick", just wonder if anyone has any suggestions on proper ways to deal with this?

I had one that fit in the center cap of the spare, but it was a pain in the ass when rotating tires. I have one of those circle ones I got off ebay or Amazon. I should have spent a bit more because it's not as bright as me LED taillights, but it's fine.

If you want to build your own, here's a video on how 1 guy did it...

A more durable solution would be substituting the dust shield with a 16" pizza pan. Just a thought.

Have the red LED donut myself. But it does have to be held in place when pulling the spare off. Maybe Gorilla Glue next time. LOL
