this is what you want, it's made by eagle eyes which is a good brand, the housing only comes in black so if you need a different color you would need to get it painted or find a stock housing, the lamp will switch over, the lamp lights all the way across, this is a good knock off product surprisingly.

Are these direct fit, and how hard are they to remove/replace?

Yes plug-n-play, takes a few minutes not hard at all a helper to hold the glass at the right angle helps though

I still don't understand the reasoning as to why GM changed the esky third from all the way across leds on the nbs to only the center on the nnbs esky light. Kinda lame. Probably cost issues. Lol. I do love that my nbs esky third goes all the way across and that it didn't require a custom mod.

NBS 3rd light? How do I know a NBS from a NNBS. I want mone to light up all the way across.

NBS is forum slang for the GMT800 platform SUVs, 2000-2006. And NNBS is forum slang for the GMT900 platform, 2007-2014 SUVs. What year, make and model is your ride?

Do you have direct experience that the stock Esky housing and the Eagle Eye housing are interchangeable? My Eagle Eye housing has begun to warp. And it never held the supplied rubber flap (or my OEM one) properly, allowing it to fall into the gap between the hatch and body. If these can be swapped, I'll do that.
