3rd brake light replacement lens for '98?

[spatula]

Good afternoon. I have already replaced the lens on my upper/3rd brake light on my '98 once due to weathering/cracking. I just noticed that this one is now split. I have been looking around online, and all I seem to find is new LED fixtures for about $45. So my questions - does anyone make a repro lens that's any good? And if not, are the LED ones any good? I hate to spend $45 on another piece of garbage that won't last. I have contacted various local people parting out Expeditions but every single one of those lenses is cracked, too.
I appreciate any info anyone can give me. Thanks,

The LED lights are generally good and last a long time.

Thanks. Any brands to seek out or avoid? Or are they all made in the same factory anyway? Thanks,

Ran into the same problem when restoring my '99; incandescence is so passé. Had to settle on this plug-compatible one and it's been fine so far.

I would just go with one of the lights off eBay and add a little sealant to it if need be.
