Is no 3rd tail light illegal?
Hi all, I was thinking about putting an EVO 8 wing on my OZ lancer. The OZ stock wing has the tail light in the middle, while the EVO wing does not have it at all. Is it illegal to drive without the third tail light? or should I move it to the rear windshield?

I don't know if it's illegal or not, but you probably won't get pulled over for it, if it is.
The 3rd tail light on my truck has been out for awhile, and no one has given me any trouble.

I've been driving around without one for quite sometime here in CA. We're known for some strict policies. I suppose if you don't drive like a maniac, you can run under the radar.
Driving without one is illegal. But that decision is up to you.
If you feel obligated to have a third brake light, you can get one from the dealer for about 70USD.

Thanks for the replies guys, I going to go ahead and do it without the third brake light. I called the insurance company today and they were cool with it. Now I just need to find a cheap used Evo8 wing.
