The previous owner of my car installed an LED 3rd brake light. it is a 
generic GM-brand light i believe. very narrow and short, it mounts on the 
2nd from the top louver. when you sit in the car it is invisible because 
that louver is directly in line with the line of vision obscured by the 
interior ceiling. it looks VERY stock. the LED's are nice and bright. 
viewable from side angles too. when you hit the brakes it dramatically 
inproves visability and doesn't look aftermarket at all. if i were going to 
do it all over again i would do it exactly the same way.

i have also heard of people using the angled 3rd brake light from 80's 
corvettes, mounted on the top louver since it is nearly the same angle. 
however that is a standard lightbulb and not LED.

i will upload a couple of pics to the photo section later today.
