LED License Plate Frame

I bought this neat LED skull license plate frame for the back and it has red eyes that light up. I want to wire this to the brake light so it comes on when the brakes do, instead of only at night (rigged to the license plate light).

Is there an easy route from the license plate to the tails? I've already been into the tail lights before when I changed those out. Bad picture of the frame, I know.

Okay got it. Yes, I will post pics (clearer ones too!). Yes, I am into skulls. Matter of fact, where the Toyo badge was on the left rear there is now a black skull and crossbones with red eyes. His brothers will meet him on the license plate frame. :)

I finally got the sucker in. Wow, at the stuff I had to take off the rear end of the car just to hook this thing up to the brake lights! Anyway, it works wonderfully, and I will post a pic when it gets dark! Hooray for getting that done.

One pic was in daylight where you can see the skulls lit up some, and the others were in the dark where you just see the red glow from the eyes. I like it, but I don't know if it was worth it, since I broke the latch on the license plate light getting it out (glued the latch back on).

Because I wanted them to show in day and night time. Just a little kick for the person behind me in traffic. :)
