Default Let's talk tail light/turnsignal wiring

The other tail light thread got me to thinking.
Ok, the main lead goes back to the tail light, and the turnsignal wires come out of that main piece on back.
So if you were to change tail lights, how would you redo the signals then to make them work?

Don't know if this will help but it shows how to bypass the tail light, might shed some light on the situation.
