Default Ford Logo 3rd Brake Light

Here's a neat idea for a third brake light. I used a 12v LED Ford logo light designed for receiver hitches. When it's plugged into the 4way trailer plug, it lights up when you apply the brakes. FYI, the '56 Ford truck tail lights bolt right on the stock A truck light brackets.
