    Default F3S Brake Lights

    Has anyone been able to put on their F3's high intensity led brake lights and have them flash when the brakes are applied. I had this on my RT and was very happy with the set-up.

    It is my understanding that in Arkansas and many other states, it is against the law for the brake lights to flash. you can put aftermarket lights on and have flashing lights, but at least one set must remain lit while the brakes are in use. Check your local laws before doing this.

    Default Well....

    Have seen most do it with a third light. You need a modulator to do the flashing part but as mentioned above check the legality of doing this in your state....

    We installed the modulator from TricLED on an F3 and it worked great. The only drawback is that there isn't any easily accessible location to mount the modulator so you need to set it and leave it. On the RT I have my modulator mounted in the rear trunk so I can easily change it (not that I ever do).

    I have the modulators installed to flash the brake lights on my F3S. Spyderpops has some plug n play units in the works. He may have some prototypes to sell if you call him. I installed a set from him on an RT a couple weeks ago and the F3S version was in the works but very similar.

    Electrical Connection finally has a 10 LED license plate bar that can be added on and modulated. It is 100% plug'n'play, no cutting or splicing and is adjustable. I have a thread here:
