For any of you who were following my Third light email. Here is the final
product. The in person version is much better than my crappy pics, But think
about it !! These lights are better than none.
I follow the Bentley diagrams to hook up the wires to the appropriate source
signal.

I took the side brackets completely off an noticed that my super double
sided 3m tape (for side moldings) could be cut to size. I decided to place
the light directly on the glass. I have a 1/4 space in top and bottom of the
assembly for breathing room, but the sides have the tape.

This lights also have built in turn signals (bonus). Grounded the lights at
the left defrost ground:

I gave my wires enough slack to open and close the hatch without issues:

Using the same double sided tape I ran the wires toward a hatch hole. After
placing a grommet on that hole I ran the wires into the engine area for
attachment to the existing brake and turn signal
