Use a quick-connect to splice onto the brake light. The brake light is the large 3-wire harness inside the big rubber boot. The quick-connect punches a pin through both wires and creates a secure splice.

Don't worry about the ground wire. The 4-wire turn signal uses its own ground wire and we hooked it up in Part 1.

Disconnect the brake connector by using a small screwdriver to release the locking pin.
Using a small sharp knife, carefully cut open the plastic sheath. We just want to get inside the sheath. DO NOT cut any wires.
Identify the green wire with a yellow stripe. This is the brake light power.
Slide a blue quick-connect over the green wire with yellow stripe.
Slide the closed end of your prepped blue wire into the other side.
Make sure both wires are fully inserted. Then fold the cover over the top.
Use a pair of pliers to snap it closed. It may take a lot of effort.
