Default GS Spoiler LEDs out?

I have a dealer installed spoiler on my GS400 and last week the LEDs stopped working as a brake light. At night with the lights on, I notice that only 3 of them are lit dimly all the time. They stay on, dinly, whether the brakes are on or not.

Ideas? Thoughts?

Can the LED bar be replaced? How do you remove?

Thanks.

Dan

Take it to the dealer, i had to get mine fixed also several times.

I wish my GS came with the spoiler from the factory, for some reason the dealer installed ones have problems with the LED........I check mine all the time to make sure it still works.

Default Hey RNM GS3

For those of you that went to the dealer, what did they charge to replace the LEDs? Depending on how much, I may just remove the spoiler and use the cash to respray the decklid.

Thanks.
