So I came upon an idea...

I was following behind a Mercury Mountaineer today on the highway and
finally realized that it is using new LED brake and tail lamp
technology. With a little research, I found out that "the Joule LED
lighting system, first unveiled in December 2003 by Osram Sylvania, is
to be used for the first time on the 2006 Mercury Mountaineer"

Does anyone have a Mountaineer...and would be willing to take a peak
at their brake lamp? I would be interested in buying the replacement
LED assembly from Mercury and toying around with it in the
Escape...however I have no idea what the replacement cost of it would
be!

The Part Number for the replacement is:L1224R according to the 06 Mercury Mountaineer Manual. However I can't seem to find a replacement online...anyone have an idea on a price?
