DOES ANYONE KNOW...?

Does anyone know who manufactures an LED 3rd brake light system for a 2002 vert? I wanted to replace the 3rd brake light lens but learned the lens is not available individually--the entire unit must be purchased for $133.16! I figure might as well check out an LED system if one is available, instead of paying 133 bucks just so I can have a new lens. Thanks for any enlightenment!

I went into the Mid America motorworks web site (www.mamotorworks.com)and found the 3rd brake light assembly, but i'm not sure if it's "LED".?

Thanks to all who responded. $99 is better than $133. I wonder how much the labor charge is to install. Looks like the trunk carpeting has to be removed in order to access the install site. I'd hate to do a "botch" job on it. Installing the 4 new LED tail lights was a no brainer. They are the reason the 3rd brake light looks dull and crappy now! I may just have to live with it.
 
Hi, 3M makes a good plastic polish. I've used it on the lenses of my GS and had decent results. It certainly won't look new but it does remove some of the oxidation from the lens.
Also if you have a clay bar you may rub that over the lens a few times to see if it will pick up any old wax and road goo.
