Looking to add power for my chase bar's brake light function, and need a signal wire.

Does anyone know of a source for a 12v brake light signal in the engine bay (or cab) that is hot only when you apply the brake?

Edit: Looks like I can just use the input signal from the trailer brake controller since I only need like 1.5 amps.
