One thing I would like to add, there should be installed at the point you tap off for the new light an in-line fuse. The wires going to the 3rd brake light must pass some tight places and sharp edges. With a fuse installed if the wiring to the 3rd light should ever get grounded at least you still have the origional stop lights. BTW I attached the ground wire to one of the screws behind the trim for the "T" roof so I only ran 1 wire back to the right rear tail light. I used a small (5 amp) fuse, It is more than the light needs but will certainly blow if there is ever a problem. A putty knife is a slick way to tuck the wire into the joints so it is hidden.
