Need wiring help on spoiler brake light plz...

I just installed a ZL1 spoiler on my SS. I've searched threads on where to wire the brake light. Either i'm overlooking them or there isn't enough info. My ZL1 spoiler does not have a plug, just 2 wires. Where do I t-tap in? I've heard the passenger side rear panel area. I removed it, but i'm not seeing any "plug" for the 3rd brake light. Mine is a late 2010 2SS model. Any info & photos would be great. Thanks to all that can help.

Dude, I tapped into the brake light harness on the rear drivers side. I can't remember which two they were ( I think it was a grey/strip and black). Strip the wire from the leads if the spoiler, disconnect the brake light harness from the light assembly, have a buddy hold down the brake pedal and tap into the contacts until you find it. Warning: One of the contacts operates with the turn signal as well so your spoiler will blink when turned on. Have patience my friend! Last but not least, splice into the wires, tape or sauder and put everything back together. Good luck!

Gen5 DIY sells a plug-n-play harness for getting the ZL1 spoiler brake like to work with the SS
