Bought a getty ducktail sport off the marketplace, arrived in good shape but due to misunderstanding it didn't include the 3rd brake light. I'm not clear on what part I'd need to order for this, can anyone chime in who might know? Opening to opening is about 14 5". Already bought the harness directly from Getty.

I feel like mine came with the light from Getty. I would just ping them, they’ll know.

Getty uses a 997 Turbo lid third brake light which is about $100 new.

Yes, turbo rear wing brake light... also, read through these threads about brake light cable looms and reprogramming ecu for fixed rear deck spoiler.

There are 2 types of wiring Harnesses. So be careful what you order. To Help clarify:

If you have a fixed wing WITHOUT a 3rd brake light you need: 997-612-670-71

If you have a Fixed wing WITH a 3rd brake light you need: 997 622 670 70.

The Getty DuckTail is considered a Fixed wing WITH 3rd brake light and requires Harness 997 622 670 70.

You will also need to visit the dealership after for them to program the modules to know that you have a fixed wing and disable the motorized wing warning light , or if you have a foxwell 520nt pro, you can program it with that.

Great info, thanks. I'll have to open the wiring harness box and make sure Getty sent the right one.

I definitely recommend picking up a Foxwell NT520 if you don’t already have one. Coding is super straight forward and only takes a minute. The tool will probably cost the same if not less then the dealer visit.

Thanks, I probably will. Needed to visit my indy to install Soul valved exhaust and fix a window regulator so I figured they could do it, but it would be nice to be able to clear codes on my own. The airbag code came off a couple weeks ago after I drained the battery by accident.

I did the same. Went with the Getty Duck and third light and harness.
This is what I like about legit forum's and why I pay to be on here, info like this helping like minded people!
Funny thing though, my car is Artic Silver and when my painter came outside with the paint samples of Arctic Silver, I was confused as he brought out FOUR different Arctic Silvers! needless to say, I have a near perfect match

Good luck, love the duck...

Yes... be aware that Metallic colors may have a few variables. There is what is called the "flop color". Flop is a change in the value, hue or chroma of a vehicle finish when it is viewed from different angles. For example, viewed head on, a vehicle color may be a good match with your test panel, but as you move around to a 3/4 view the light/sun is catching the metallic colors at a different angle and this may give the impression that the color may be darker or lighter than your original paint. I had this happen on a artic silver side skirts and from certain angles the silver looked darker. It drove me nuts and I had them repaint them with another variant of arctic silver and that time it was perfect. So be aware that this happens with many of the metallic colors. So get good samples and compare them at different angles on the car if you are unsure.
