Default 3rd light connection

Does anybody have a wiring diagram with the 3rd light connection (so the turn signals does not come on on the third light), There used to be a little box that connected to the brake light wire, to keep the signal from flashing, but can't find these anymore.

You're attempting to add or repair? What is it you're actually trying to accomplish? Year - body - etc !

I have a 84, I installed a 3rd light 12 years ago, with a little box that goes inline, that gave out, and now I have no 3rd light, and can't locate any more of those little conversion box's.
I was curious as to how the light on the newer 3rd light is wired in.

I'm not sure why this should be an issue. The '84 brake light switch is easy to reach (right above the pedal) and splice into. Just run the wire under the door sill and thru the b-pillar cover up to the light. No little boxes required, and no turn signal lights are involved.
