In a pickle. Brake light suggestions?

Well, i have been on my truck for 4 years. Its almost done. I have 17 days to finish it to get it to the car show happening sept 10th.

Im stuck on the rear brake lights. aahaha Its a stepside bed and i want to mount something very simple and clean but i want to mount them in my roll pan.

This is the roll pan im getting.


Now i would like some simple brake lights for it. FLush mount prefably. Im thinking 2" round, just two of them, maybe 4?

Any recommendations?

I saw a newer model truck with 63 or 64 Impala tail lights mounted in the roll pan. It looked pretty cool. Just a thought.
