Got a new to me topper of CL today! Need help though..

So I had an aluminum topper that I got for free and painted with bedliner but I couldnt pass this one up for $65 especially when ive been trying to get a fiberglass one! And before you look at the pics and say it doesnt match, I know! I like it! But I need help with figuring out how to wire the 3rd brake light up and the inside domelight, I have been searching but am unable to figure out how...I am no good with wiring isht up. Help is much appreciated, Thanks guys!!

trailer light wiring harness

run it across the bottom and up and behind the driver side tail light insert it through the bed hole behind the tail light

( make sure you plastic protective conduit and wrap it with electrical tape )

paint the inside black, it'll make a huge difference! and as far was the wiring, yes, use a trailer light harness like cheese_man said

Haha I LOVE MY SUNROOF!!!!!

And I plan on painting the inside black very soon, I hate that cream color but I just got it 2 days ago and have been working all day everyday since but I have this weekend off so it may happen...but the center console I'm buying tomorrow is at the top of the list. Along with painting the rims black again lol
