third brake light question

I have a 91 RS that got broken into sometime in its life and the hatch was the way the thieves decided to enter through the hatch. So now i have the car and replaced the hatch with a hatch from an 84 z28 and want to know how and if i can put a third brake light on it like the original hatch had

cause some places require you to have one if the car came with it.

Isn't it a law that any car 86 or newer is required to have one?

Yeah man, you might wanna get that hatch changed out or something to get a rear-brake light, though, if you can get an 87+ spoiler with the brake light in it, you can wire it up.. Though the wire should still be there?
