09 C5 Tourer Estate 3Rd Rear Brake Light

[Norwear]

Pardon fellow C5III owners. I need help/tip on a link to buy a new or secondhand 3rd rear brale light on the estate (hatch) I've tryed my best on ebay and second hand dealers in Scandinavia. But i cant find any. Little bit disappointed that even ebay don't have it. Though i rather believe it's due to my lack of ebay experience. Any tip will do. Anyone know the part-number? Thank you.

It should be 6351HH. It is about £80 from a Citroen dealer. On cars up to RPO 11800 the original part no. was 6351EY but has also been replaced by 6351HH. This is also the same part as used on the 5 door C4 hatchback including the current model, so gives a few more options for sourcing a used part. I could not find any on ebay and just a google search on 6351HH only came back with used parts not much different in cost to a new one. You could try searching for a C4 or a C5 that is being broken and then contact the scrap dealer to see if the light is available.

 

 

 

I have moved the post in to a subsection since ones outside of one do not show after a few days and are then difficult to find. They also do not count to your number of posts which is why it only looks as if you have made 3 posts so far.

Thanks for the tip Paul.

I'll look into it on Sunday.

Enjoy the rest of the weekend.

Alex,

 

I don't know why you are looking for a replacement but it is very unlikely for these led units to fail. What is more common (as on my car) is for one of the wires feeding it to have broken just where it meets the tailgate, between body and tailgate.

 

The wiring is in two separate rubber conduits, the feed to the 3rd brake light is in the smaller one.

 

Definitely worth checking this first.

 

Regards

John

To John and other who wonder why.

My brake-light is broken in one corner (don't know how,previous owner) and i strongly believe it is broken due to moisture.

All the other lights attached to the hatch is working.

But will definitely check out the wires as Mr. John refer to.

 

Alex.
