Default Fourth brake light?

I was wondering if anyone has installed a fourth brake light, one that looks like the lights F1 cars use during bad weather conditions. Here's an example of one on a Nissan 370Z.

I would love to have this on an S2000. I think it adds to the look of the car. How would I do it?

I've been wondering what that spot was on the 350Z ..... Was thinking it was a stealth trailer hitch

There's no such thing as a "fourth brake light", that is a rear fog light. Wiring the light to your brakes is not what the light is meant for. The 370z guys wire their rear fog lights incorrectly because of pure laziness and not wanting to run a wire into the cabin of the car to a switch.

I see. Thank you for correcting me. It's just a cool and interesting mod that I'm considering doing.
