LED Equivalent for 3rd Brake Light 900 1994

New bulb holder/backing plates are still available new for $40.00.

LED bulbs for any of the brake lights may make the bulb warning system not to work correctly.

The style of 3rd brake light bulb is very common and you should be able to find the LED equivalent at just about any auto parts store.

Unfortunately, melting plastic is not an uncommon problem for the brake light bulbs and I strongly suggest that whenever possible like when at a full stop while waiting for a traffic light to change, waiting for train or while going through a drive through, to pull the parking brake lever and get off the brake pedal.

That's what I do when driving my or anybody else's 1973 and later rear wheel drive Volvo that we work on.
