I mounted a third brake light on my '85 245. It came from some Jeep wagon (had a Chrysler part number too) and used three little bulbs. I located it on top of the rear window. I had previously run a wire from the brake switch back to a little "converter box" for my trailer lights, so I used that same wire to power the new light. I had done the "bypass harness" for all the rear door wiring, so I just added this wire to the harness and it worked like a charm. Even with the tinted window it was very visible.
