Upgrading to larger tires on your 2021-2026 Bronco can block the factory third brake light from view behind an aftermarket spare mounted on the rear tire carrier. Rough Country's third brake light extension bracket solves that problem without cutting, drilling, or running new wires. The bracket raises the factory light high enough to clear aftermarket spare tires up to 37 inches, restoring visibility in about 30 minutes with basic hand tools.
No wiring, no cutting, no complications. The extension retains the factory third brake light and its existing wiring harness, so the install stays clean and fully reversible. Plug the factory connector back in and the light works exactly as it did from the factory, just higher.
Built to handle the outdoors. Powder-coated steel construction resists corrosion and holds up to trail conditions, matching the durability expected from components living on the back of a Bronco.
Keeps you street-legal. Many states require the third brake light to remain visible at all times. Running a large spare can put you in a gray area without a fix like this. The extension keeps the light above the tire and in the sightline of drivers behind you.
