even ancient cars have 3rd brake lights. I'd check your local DMV, and see what their regulations say.

afaik you must buy the car with it. i think you can remove it or change the location once you own the car. i could be wrong. my dad who lives in Timonium, MD doesnt have a 3rd light on his Camry anymore

I'm in Baltimore as well. Been driving for about a year without a third brakelight and have never had a problem. Nor did I have any issues registering at the DMV.
