I don't know if a center brake light is required. I do know that it is a very good idea. If your topper comes down to the top of the tailgate, you could mount a light off the bottom of the topper right behind the tailgate.

I'm also looking for a good way to mount wheel covers to aluminum wheels. If the covers could be fastened with one center fastener, threaded inserts could be epoxied into the center holes in the front spindles. The rear axles could be drilled and tapped.
