I have a 1998 Ford Ranger XLT 2.5L 4x2 and a Glasstite cap, and I'd like to wire the third brake light with quick release connectors. The cap has an interior dome light and four wires in total coming out of it (red, red, red/black, black), with two wires going to the dome light (red, black) and two wires going to the 3rd brake light (red, black). My truck has separate brake (red), reverse (white), and blinker (amber) lights and I bought a wiring kit with quick connectors, so I'm hoping the job won't be too difficult. I don't have any experience doing car electrical work, however I do know how to splice and solder wires, and I have heat shrink to protect the wires. I also bought a quick connect wiring kit (American Technologies C90-907) and have other connectors that might work (computer power supply extensions with male/female connectors).
What would be the best way to wire the truck cap third brake light? I attached some pictures and can take more if necessary. Thanks in advance
