Which version of the "high 3rd brake light?" Inside the glass or outside the glass?

Yeah, I thought ~'90+ was inside, that's why I was when I read RiceKiller's response. Someone verify that though.

86 had the high mount on the outside of the hatch up top and the 91-92 models had it inside. 85 didnt have a 3rd brake light and 87-90 had it in the spoiler.

later,

.... and 87-90 had it in the spoiler.

With one exception. The 1987 Sport Coupe without a rear spoiler got the exterior mounted lamp, same as 1986.

Don't forget about the 1987 Camaro LT, and the early 1988 Sport Coupe with the ugly little wing.

Technically speaking, the LT was an option package on the Sport Coupe.

.... with a integrated third brake lamp. Good catch!

Did they have 3rd brake light? An old neighbor of mine had one, and I don't ever remember seeing a 3rd brake light. Never seen one since.
