Supplied by Volkswagen Parts UK, this OEM-spec high-mounted stop lamp is engineered for precise fitment, reliable illumination, and long-term durability across a wide range of Volkswagen platforms.

Unlike low-quality aftermarket alternatives, this genuine-spec Volkswagen third brake light is designed to integrate seamlessly with factory electrical systems, delivering consistent brightness, fast response time, and dependable performance in all driving conditions.

Product Overview

The 2K0 945 087 G 3rd Brake Light is a high-mounted stop lamp (HMSL) that activates instantly when the brake pedal is pressed.

• Product Type: Rear safety lighting component
• Classification: OEM / Genuine Volkswagen-spec part
• Function: High-level brake illumination
• OEM Part Number: 2K0 945 087 G

This component is mounted at an elevated position on the rear of the vehicle—typically on the tailgate or rear window area—ensuring maximum visibility to traffic behind.

Its main function is to provide an additional, highly visible braking signal that enhances road safety and ensures compliance with modern automotive lighting standards.

How It Works

The third brake light operates as part of the vehicle’s braking electrical circuit.

When the driver presses the brake pedal:

• The brake light switch activates the rear lighting circuit
• Electrical current is distributed to all brake lamps simultaneously
• The high-mounted brake light illuminates instantly

Because of its elevated position, it provides:

• Earlier visibility for following drivers
• Improved recognition in traffic congestion
• Better braking awareness in low-light conditions

Common failure symptoms include:

• No illumination when braking
• Flickering or intermittent operation
• Moisture ingress inside housing
• Dashboard bulb warning light
