do you only want to light up your trunk with neons when you put the car in reverse or brake?

so then you are looking for your tail light power wire, not your brake/reverse/turn signal power wires.

I think it is the Red/Black wire. Should be the same color wire that goes to all your tail lights since they are all on when you turn the lights on.
