does anyone know for sure if the rear glass has to be replaced to install the esky third brake light on a tahoe. i've heard its a direct fit just had to use 3m tape to install, then i heard that the glass has to be replaced so the wires can be ran through. i want to do this but i want to know what i'm getting into before i start buying, thanks

I just got a hold of one last week (third brake light assembly only), repainting it (today) to match truck, and hopefully have it on by tommorrow evening. I could have just got the back glass with assembly but then I would'nt have any change left for gas.

the rear glass doesnt have to be replaced. Just pick up the esky applique and I think it comes with 3M adhesive tape to affix to the back glass.

Hmmm, I always thought you had to replace the glass. That's what I did anyways and it was no big deal. Just heavy as shit but...

I think its just easier to replace the whole glass, will look good once done. Wanted to do this to my yukon but just no funds
