Purpose
The high-mount brake light signals vehicles to the rear that the vehicle is stopped.
Function
The high-mount brake light illuminates in conjunction with the operation of the brake light switch.
Construction
The high-mount brake light is positioned on the roof.
The high-mount brake light has adopted an LED.
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 has no effect on the light performance. Fogging or condensation will dissipate when the temperature inside the high-mount brake light rises after the high-mount brake light is illuminated and a period of time has elapsed.
