Background
The New Beetle hatch lid has an embedded elongated and slightly curved third brake light that can be relocated to the fiberglass section above the cabin rear window. The light’s curve closely matches the profile of the roof line.

One advantage of this relocation is that the existing wiring harness can be reused with only a minor modification: the ground connection must be relocated from the rear C-pillar post.
