Cab Brake light for AD

Does anyone know if there is a pre-made or weld-in third brake light kit for the AD cab. I thought I saw one but can't remember where. Or even something close

I used one for my truck. I went with a mail slot kind. I think it was 1/4" thick by 7.5" wide. I bought it from a company called Watson street works.

It was a little tricky to install but once installed, you clear over the lense so it ends up being as smooth as the paint on your cab. My cab is black where the lens is mounted so you dont even notice it when it is off. Plus its LED so it is bright when it comes on.

I did think about one in the belt line. That may work easier
Thanks for the tips

I mounted mine in the flat spot below the rear window and above the belt line. I also then designed my interior so that I have access to that area.
