2015 Forester 3051 Brake light trim replacement

The black trim around the rear brake light is falling apart. My local dealer doesn’t have a clue on what or where to get the replacement. Any ideas would be helpful.

Look at the manufacturer name on the lens and do a Google search to find who has it. I do that all the time.

Check with Command Electronics. They supply most of the light fixtures.

Question, was it just the black ring and lens or the entire fixture that required wiring? Or, is the black ring detachable from the metal insert?

It was the black trim ring around the light, problem is it is all one piece. The black trim is not detachable from the new light. Was a very easy replacement.
