Default Back off 3rd lite flasher

I have a 3rd brake lite flasher module that goes in series with the 3rd brake lite wire. I pulled the carpet away from the area in front of the 3rd brake lite & dicovered that there is a solid panel there thus, no access to the wiring without removing the rear facia.

There is some wiring under the car on the drivers side that looks like wiring for the rear lites?

If anyone has installed this flasher where did you install it? Maybe installing it at the brake lite switch would be easier

Thanks Don

I have that device and like it real well. For $39 it is better than the other more expensive one. You install it by removing the licence plate and taking the backup lights loose. I found instructions on how to do this in the tech tips section I'm pretty sure.

I installed mine by removing the inner drivers side brake light and reaching up to the third light. I couldn't see what I was disconnecting, but that seemed much easier than pulling out the entire license plate and backup light assembly.
