Default s40 brake LED spoiler bodge wired up

OK - I have bodged this - but I cannot really see a better option - other than making my connections more permanent.

The LED lead back into the boot lid and has a long cable. The exisiting cables go through a grommit and a thinnish cable/conduit on the left side to the electrics at the back of the rearlights etc. No room to squeeze in there so I just ran it through flapping in the wind past liner to boot then taped in to back of wiring loom.

I really have just bodged this at moment so don't get to upset. I wanted to see what it looked like and what my options were.
I have just slipped the red wire into the rear of the brake light junction and the black is attached to the earthing point/bolt already used by existing wiring. All just lecci taped at present.

Pictures speak loader than words - well its not a great picture...
