Default Need help finding a part

So I had my first DE at COTA this weekend and felt generous so I left a part somewhere on the track. I have a factory aerokit car with fixed spoiler so it has the third brakelight on the spoiler. Where the 3rd brakelight would normally go was a just a lense/placeholder that didn't have any bulbs or lamps behind it. Well, there was until about halfway through day 2. Trouble is, I can't find that part number anywhere to replace it. Everything I have found has been the entire assembly which included the bulbs and wiring and all of that. I don't need that stuff, just the delete for the stock 3rd brakelight location. Any ideas? Also, if I saw you out there this weekend then, "Hey, What a wonderful time!" BTW, if you found my 3rd brakelight lens on the track, let me know, I would love to have it back. Also, if it is sticking out of your grill right now... "I have no idea what you are talking about. What 3rd brakelight delete thing?"


Cheers and thanks for the help. Here are a couple of pics.

Thanks. Yeah I checked around- PS, Pelican, Suncoast, etc but couldn't find one. Mine didn't have the whole assembly, just the lens. And I don't even know what that part is called. But I bet you are right, I could just leave it all in there but unplugged and call it a day.


Thanks for the help,

D.
