Where is the plug for the center brake light?

Hey,

I have searched this forum and the Internet and can not find an answer to this. Where is the plug for the center brake light located? I installed the OEM spoiler this morning and when I went looking for the center brake light plug I could not find it. These were the instructions I was following but from the picture it is unclear where that plug is coming from.

Any help is appreciated.

Right, but I cant find the plug to,... unplug. I have the wire harness from the spoiler with a connector on the end but from the car I cant find that damn plug. I thought I had it but it wasnt the right one. Any idea where its located in the trunk?

Incase you want to remove it all together:

NTPOG 5th Gen Rear Deck Replacement

Why?

You've got a base Prelude and you had the dealer install the factory rear spoiler because the car looks better with it. Now you're stuck with a center brake light inside the car. If you're lucky, the dealer was smart enough to disconnect it, if not, you've got two center brake lights (the original PLUS the one on the spoiler).. that doesn't look quite right either way.

Thats not possible. The harness unplugs from the third brake light and hooks up to the spoiler harness. It's one or the other.
