Thanks John,

  Actually my question was how have people mounted the 3rd brake light
on the back shroud of a BJ8 & run the wiring to it, without drilling
holes in the shroud for the wiring (i.e. - release the magnets etc & be
back to the stock appearance).
  Is this possible?

Thanks,

Neil

Like Vrooom Vrooom and others I'm interested in installing a third tail
light/brake light combination.  And I'd like to install it in some kind
of chrome fixture on the underside of the top luggage rack bar.  Has
anyone done this.

Neil,
Good question.  I ran a 14 gauge wire from the #5 terminal (brake light)
on the Flasher Relay Box in the engine bay under the left fender area to
the fire wall, ran it through a fire wall grommet with existing wires
located just under where the choke cable goes through (BN4 car), then
behind the driver's side side-kick panel, then under the carpeting past
the door, up under the vinyl panel behind the door and back under the
rear shroud edge to the 3rd brake light location.  In short, I ran it
through the driver's side interior area.  The 3rd brake light ground
wire I attached to the closest cockpit surround-molding attachment
screw.
Hope this helps.
Vrooom,
John
