tailgate stop plate and license plate lights - from SAM

Hoping someone can tell me which cables from the rear SAM are for the licence plate (number plate ) lights, and the centre brake light , (mounted to the tailgate)

Trying to put in a after market trailer harness and need a 12v input for the trailer ECU.

Are you having any problem with the license plate lights or the high mount stop light?

they are both working fine. I just need a 12v feed for a trailer ecu.

Have got the indicators off tailights but just need a normal 12v for brake and lights.

Go to the Cargo Area Fuse Box and tap into heavy RED 6 gauge wire for 12v and do the same for GROUND W7.
