License Frame w/3rd Brake Light Polished

The Billet Specialties License Frame with 3rd Brake Light Polished (Model 55520) is a polished aluminum license plate frame designed for vehicles requiring integrated third brake light functionality. This frame combines OEM-style mounting with recessed lighting that serves dual duty—securing your license plate while adding a functional safety element visible to trailing traffic. Built from aluminum with stainless hardware throughout, the frame measures 12.625 x 6.875 inches and accepts standard U.S. license plates while the integrated lighted design provides brake indication without requiring external modification to your vehicle's electrical system.

The polished finish delivers a mirror-bright appearance that resists corrosion through its aluminum construction paired with stainless steel fasteners—a combination critical for vehicles exposed to salt spray, moisture, or harsh road conditions. The recessed third brake light integrates seamlessly into the frame's design without protruding, minimizing aerodynamic disruption while maintaining visibility standards. At 0.79 lbs, the frame adds negligible weight while the standard 7.75 x 1.05 x 14.9-inch footprint (package dimensions) ensures straightforward installation on most domestic and import platforms. The lighted design eliminates the need for auxiliary brake light modules, simplifying wiring and reducing installation complexity on vehicles where factory brake lights may be obscured or where additional redundancy improves visibility.

This frame suits operators, enthusiasts, and fleet managers seeking integrated lighting solutions that meet DOT visibility requirements while maintaining a clean exterior appearance. Street vehicles, patrol units, off-road recovery platforms, and specialty builds benefit from the combination of light function and corrosion resistance. The stainless hardware prevents rust-through and fastener seizure—critical where frame removal or maintenance may be required in the field. Buyers should confirm their vehicle's electrical compatibility with 12-volt brake light circuits before purchase, as the frame's lighted function depends on proper brake signal integration to the vehicle harness.
