You buy the module and wire it it. Honestly, I think it's annoying as hell. A crazy person might just rear end you to break the damn thing LOL

I agree, though. That would drive me nuts, especially in traffic. Too much stress plus annoying light equals road rage.

It only flashes 6 times and then stays on. It takes 10 sec. to reset after releasing the brakes. So, during heavy stop and go traffic it works like stock. This helps alot in heavy rain, night driving.
If this annoys you and you decide to ram my rear, make sure you hit me hard enough so I won't be able to take my Kimber out and pop a couple leads into your right eyeball.

I'd have thought the Left eye was an easier shot in a LHD car ;)

A necessary option for a motorcycle but not for a car.

Tell that to a person who has their car in the shop with 5000+ damage from being rear-ended by an idiot in an F-250. (me.)

People are stupid. Flashing things grab stupid peoples attention.

Flashing things just let stupid people get more stupid. Eventually they will ignore the flashing brake lights just like they ignore the brake lights coming on solidly.

Make it more idiot proof and the world invents a bigger idiot.

I do like the flashy thingy though. :)
