LEDs have been adopted for the high-mount brake light.
NOTE:
-
Fogging or condensation on the inside of the high-mount brake light may occur, however, it is a natural phenomenon occurring as a result of a temperature difference between the interior and exterior of the high-mount brake light and it does not affect the light performance.
