LEDs as third brake light 120-130

I would think that on a sedan, you could easily wire it direct into the original circuit... but a wagon...

I assume you will be putting it somewhere on either the lower or upper hatch, hence, you will have the wires going through the hinge. Better make damn well sure that those wires can't break... If they do, and it shorts out, it'll blow your fuse, and you'll have zero brake lights... not a good idea. What seems like a good safety feature becomes a potential safety disaster.
