cant find my photos BUT when you take the tail piece off you will see the bracing rail between the two rear frame rails...i used a wood saw to cut across that line ..

depends on the colours of the wires from your rear light setup...have you checked you have not blown a fuse trying to match them up?..

I noticed that as well when I connected the after market led tail light. When I connected the cables wrong the brake light was always on. I switched around the cables until I got them right.
