it's sealed....
If you want, buy a spare to experiment with. Put in oven at 250 for about 10 minutes to soften the adhesive...you can then separate the halves. Do at your own risk though...and monitor the light while its in the oven.

When I bobbed the taillight on the ZRX I just soaked it in some hot water for a few minutes and the adhesive was soft enough to pull it apart.

You could drill a hole from the backside and put a rubber grommett in it so you can still run your wire through. Or silicone.

seen a lot of stunt guys that have drilled out their headlamp housing to accomodate strobes........I'm sure you could do this with your brake lamp, I'd just aim for the bottom or lower sides to keep water from running inside easier......plus if it's at the bottom or low in the housing you can yank the grommet to let water out
