I started gutting out my coupe and I had a couple of questions. First thing is does anyone know away for me to keep a third brake light after removing the original? Also what's the best way to clean everything?

 

I use soap and water.

The 3rd brake that's attached to the deck lid?

I wouldn't personally worry about it, but check state laws about it being required. My state it is required, but my bulb has probably been burnt out 2+ years.

 

Did you use a certain material cloth or anything of the sort?

 

Are you talking about cleaning the bare metal under all of the trim/seats? I would use simple green and/or soap and water and probably some scotch brite pads and some rags.

As for the brake light, hook a light up to the same wire. Zip tie it up or fabricate something better.

 

Yeah the bare metal. Thanks for the info guys.
