Hey all! Was washing my car and when i went to move it i saw a drop of water on seat, and sure enough passenger side in the back was very wet. It seems to be coming though the 3rd brake light? Is this an easy fix? 2018 and just out of warranty for it...

I think i know what happened -whomever put the strips on took the light out to fold them is as they should but instead of redoing the double sided tape just pushed it down and tightened it down and never thought about it. ugh

Good to hear and glad everything worked out!

The Mustang looks great with the stripe and wheel combo.

While you're checking for brake light leaks, be sure to check your blinker fluid levels.
