Default Reverse light wire 2010(LED BAR INSTAL)

Hey guys! Im installing a PilotLED bar under my
Tailgate that does turn signals, brake light and reverse light. Can anyone tell me which wire I need to splice into for the reverse light function of the bar it would be awesome! Thanks everyone! For the other features i already have handled. I just need help for which wore to splice into for the reverse light function. So if you guys know please let me know which wore powers the reverse lights thanks! Or if theirs a better wire to use let me know guys . Ill be sure to post some pictures up when it's done.

Sorry about all the typos and repeating myself! My iPhone is messing up so I couldn't see what I'd already typed or what I was typing
