I'd like to buy one of those gadgets that make the 3rd brake light pulsate when you hit the brakes. Buying the module isn't the problem. Where can I access the wiring to the 3rd high top mounted brake light that will give me enough room to add the module.

TIA

It gets power from the switch on the brake pedal. If I remember right its a double switch with seperate connectors for the regular brake lights and the third brake light. Its been about 8 years since I replaced it so I cant give details. My memory sucks.
