Default Third brake light?

I have a third brake light and want to put in a new light. Not a new bulb but a new fixture. Does anyone know if the existing harness for the base model will accommodate the cargo light setup?

well the easiest way I would think would to be undo the two screws that hold it in. I though all Dakotas had the cargo light.

Pretty sure the light switch is set up for it. It has the two clicks of which the second click seems to have no function.

I have 4 wires that go to the plug for the light. I assume thats for the cargo lights. Gonna just order the aftermarket light i want and put it in and hope for the best. I also assume that the whole thing is wired up for it all i have to do is plug and play.
