I installed an oem spoiler on my 96 accord today and had a question about hooking up the light on it. First off, my car did not come with a spoiler and I bought this spoiler on ebay. The spoiler is oem certified, except, I believe, for how the light hooks up. In the directions, it says to tap, ie splice, into the light wire going to the brake light in the back. I took off the cover to my tail light, yes they are not stock tail lights, and saw three wires going to the brake light bulb. My question is, would I be correct in assuming that I would need to tap into the that top black wire going into the bulb to allow the brake light to work? Or should I tap it at another spot? The light comes with a positive an negative terminal (it sort of looks like a speaker wire). Stupid question, but which one would I connect to that tap? I'm assuming the positive one, but then where would I hook the negative to?

 

Hook it to the 3rd (High Mount) brake lamp. You can either leave the 3rd lamp bulb in place or remove it. It will effect nothing.

on my car the spoler plugs directly into the rear brake light plug so i doubt that it is a true oem model.

here are the instructions for a 6th gen accord

Like I said, it's oem in design and installation onto the trunk, but not in the light hook up.
