I made one of those for my 94 dakota a long time ago. Now I got one for my
95, and Frank G. made one also. relatively simple to do. I just pulled my
3rd brake light ,applied a sticker I had made, painted the brake light, and
pulled the sticker out. It's held up excellent to the weather. No signs of
deteration. I also used a scotch brite pad to scuff the lens a little bit
before I painted it. I got pics somewhere, if someone wants to see it let
me know
