Default Question on painting third brake light

I want to custom paint my third brake light so it lights up saying "NEON", but i would like to know if it's legal, or if it would effect any possible insurance claims. By the way I am in Pa. If anyone knows about this, I would appreciate the advice. Thanks

Like Mike said, it should be legal as long as the light still shines through.

But that reminds me, I need to replace my third brake light bulb...[:-][sm=confused06.gif]

Are you even required to have a third brake light?
