Are you talking about the consol strip on the middle of the roof... or are you talking about the 3rd brake light in the back...
I need to get my 3rd brake light fixed, not to sure whats going on with it, tryed a new bulb, still nothing...

I'm assuming you're referring to the light that lights up the gear selector? That's the only light I can think of that would be a light towards the upper rear console.

it happens. just squeeze the housing and it pops right off. then replace the bulb...

i dont have a housing .......i dont have a socket to place a bulb in....all i have is 2 prongs where something went........i need to know what all goes there so i can know what to buy.

yeah, the bulb fits into those two prongs. it's a tube-looking light, i forget the number, i think it's 2112 or something. check ebay, or a junkyard for the housing, it's just a piece of plastic.

Yeah goto a junkyard and just get one from a broken down Camaro and put it on your pocket and walk out!

I got the 211-2 light and is it the same type of light that's in the back hatch? Because I got the light to fit in the back hatch and it doesn't fit in the upper console. So am I missing the thing that holds the light in.

Take a trip to the junkyard, it's cheap, and you will be able to see exactly what you are missing.

no offense but it would be easier if someone could just tell me........is it the same looking light socket thats in the back hatch?

i have an upper console that i put on, used to have just a dome light so i know the difference... you have to get a lens cover made specifically for an upper console, the simple dome light cover is a different shape than the upper console cover. and now the bulb for the third brake light is nowhere near the same as the dome light bulb. you are not missing anything for the bulb, just the bulb itself... go to advance or auto zone and tell the guys there you need a dome light bulb for whatever year camaro yours is. they'll get you the bulb and if you drive your car they might even test fit it just to make sure its the right size... i don't have the number on me right now... if you really think you need it (when you really don't need the number, just ask then for the bulb) the i suppose i could go and find it.

you are NOT missing anything, the buld goes inbetween those two prong... and you are missing an upper console dome light cover, which is different than a regular dome light cover so make sure you buy the right thing... try ebay you might find it there

there the link should work now........i went and got the 211-2 bulb and put it in my back hatch light...fit perfectly there........im guessing the roof console dont take the same kinda light bulb....btw i dont have a third brake light...my car is too old.....i bought a lens off ebay.and they said it would fit cars with the roof console.....but it is way to small to fit....there is one junkyard around here with a third gen camaro.......and they wont let me go back and take something off........
since i have got a "brand new" dome light cover......someone pay me $9 you can have it
