Looking for an aftermarket 3rd brake light

I'm wanting to put a 3rd brake light in the rear window but don't want something big and bulky. I'm looking for something very thin- front to back and thin- top to bottom. I don't care about length. Any ideas of where to look?

Check with street rod suppliers.Some have converted the outside cargo light to work as a brake light.

This is for a 67. It needs to go on the inside.

julianos brake light

I'm looking for something like the 2nd one down. Who else sells this kind of thing?

My idea is to stick it just below the window or just above and swivel it to aim it out the window.
