2006 Rear Running Light Modification

Has anyone done a rear running light modification on a 2006 VFR (so
that the bike has amber running lights on the rear as well as the
front of the bike)?

The archives link to a nice modification (by Sean Murphy) on a 6th
gen but pre-2006 VFR (http://www.seantmurphy.com/VFR/#Turn_Signals).
He talks about running a wire from the "middle" wire on the front
turn signal/running lights -- but there is no middle wire on the
front signal/running lights on my 2006, which has only two wires to
the front signal/running lights. He also refers to an empty "center
post" on the rear "signal connectors" (sockets?) into which the
running lights can be wired -- but again I can't find this.

Has anyone done this mod on a 2006 and can offer some advice? I did a
similar mod (with advice from this list) on a 1990 VFR. It sure
improved rear visibility and it was a snap to do to boot. I'd like to
do it on my 2006.

Thanks in advance.

Hmm. So when you remove your rear plastic wire harness clip for the turn
signal, how many posts do you see two or three?
