The headlamp switch does not have a post for the Stop light wire. It has connectors for head,park,tail,batt,dash and aux. Assume I can connect dome to aux post. Do I need another switch $$ or is there a way to make this work?

Below is a picture of many Chevy switches. The stoplight (and dome light) should always be hot, so either the battery lead or any another lead that is always hot would seem like good choices.

Thanks for the reply. Is the Aux hot or the same as Batt(always hot)? I was going to hook the dome up to the aux and I guess I could use the aux or batt to do the same for the stoplight?
