I gotta assume it is 12V. I think it is a standard bulb back there. I dont think the LEDs will casue a message center error either because my 3rd brake light has been burned out for over a year and the computer hasn't complained.

y not just replace it
There is no bulb out warning for the 3rd brake light, but with the Gen 1 LS you will be left with a big hole when the brake light is removed. I went w/the Gen 2 carpet tray(same fit no hole) and the top mount LED brake light at first and then decided to go larger(pic's attached). It is 12 volts, and if you switch to LED's you will notice a faint flicker when the REM awakes. It won't hurt to leave it that way, but if it bothers you just add a load resistor to match the original bulb's current draw. If you go w/the Gen 2 LED don't forget to get the capicitor that goes with it and you will also have to add a tint strip at the top to hide the housing.
