3rd brake light
where would I need to wire a 3rd brake light to? I know it cant be the tail light wires or it would blink with the signals. I am thinking I need to come off of the brake light switch.

I make Custom LED Third brake insert with in a brushed aluminum channel. Any # of LEDs or lengths. Also the Cargo third brake insert that will be in production shortly.
Yes you need to ground the third brake to body/chassis, then run a power wire directly off the brake pedal switch.

If you jumper it off the regular tail light it will flash with turn signal also.

I jumped mine off the brake light switch and that way it does not blink w/ turn signals.

What would be cool is to have half of it blink with the turn signal also. Don't know if that would be legal though.

Yeah it's legal. I can make one like that. I was thinking more on the lines of having the last 6 LEDs to the right and left be amber. and the center section just red, with parking/brake function.
