Default 2001 IS300 3rd brake light

The red lense that covers my third brake light located inside the car by the back window has come loose and I was wondering if there was anyone else who has had the same problem. I do have 2 12" fosgate XLC's in the trunk and when I took it in to the dealer they said the reason the it came loose was my bass. And if they fixed it that it would probably come loose again. What should I do?

No biggie, I had the same thing happen when I was gettting the rear window tinted. The whole housing comes off really easy and the lense and housing is made of pretty cheap quality plastic IMO. How come we don't get LED's? You can snap everything back into place no problem, however I would recommend using some type of sealer on the back of the red lense. Shoe Goo works wonders, I kid you not. Just make sure it drys really well before you put everything back together. Shoe goo is permanent, so will not come off unless you use shoe goo remover. I am sure other sealers will work also, however I have had much luck with shoe goo. It fixes everything. Good luck.
