Default Rear Spoiler LED out

I only have 3 LEDs in the rear spoiler 3rd brake light coming on. Anyone tried replacing the individual LEDs or bought a replacement LED array for the spoiler 3rd brake light? How hard is it to replace?

How much did they want for it? I have half of my LED's out and I'd rather give it a go to replace the leds. 1999 SC400 spoiler brake light. Has anyone ever tried that?

It was around $86 and change according to them. They listed it as "Third Brake Light" but I'm skeptical cuz the non-spoiler GX also has a high mount LED third brake light. I might need to visit the local dealership to verify the part no.

$86 is not bad. Are you sure the non-spoiler 3rd brake light is LED? I thought they were regular bulb type.

Yes It is LED, but it is not $86.00. I cracked mine when pulling it out to wire my aftermarket spoiler and was quote somewhere around $250.00 to replace it. It is only sold as a complete assembly.
