Some of them do not have rear brake light hookup, or it is extra. Vortex it is extra, I believe. It hooks to the banjo bolt, is activated by hydraulic pressure, and bypasses the stock switch.

EDIT: Found it. Link

you can get the exact same set up on ebay for half the price. i had a set of vortex and the wiring harness broke and had to replace it after gettin rid of the rear sets like a complete dumb a$$. i still kept that setup after using stock ones but you can find it on ebay.....
