Hi

I installed a different plate mount but used the blue wire off the rear wiring harness.

Just looking at the schematic, if it has a brake light on it as well. The brake is Red/Yellow and Running light is the Blue. So if it has license plate illumination light it can run to the blue wire as well. Might need a load equalizer, if your turn signals start acting funny then you need one.

shouldn't need an equalizer for just a tail/running light. Especially if you are still running the stock tail light. IIRC you only need the equalizer for turn signals
