3rd Brake Light Hijinks

I've owned 6 metros now and I find it strange that EVERY single one that I've owned never has a functioning 3rd brake light. I cracked open the housing to check the bulb on my swift and was greeted by the sight below. It would surprise me but I have found this exact thing in all 6 of my metros. The bulb is always blown and the plastic is always melted or scorched. Why is that? Has anyone else ever noticed this?

This is because nobody has installed the LED bulb that belongs there yet.

:+1 No one bothers to figure out how to open it up and replace the bulb since most cops won't pull you over for having the 3rd brake light out.

The bulb was missing from the car I had before my current one. Apparently the previous owner took the time and effort to remove the light, take out the bulb, and reinstall the light, but didn't bother putting in a new bulb? :lol
