    Yeah I remember one time I was on the highway and all of a sudden the guy in front of me slams on his brakes and swerves because there was a car doing 30 mph for some reason. I turned on the hazards instantly to warn everyone else behind me. I had the really fast strobe setting on. Everyone saw the lights and signaled to switch lanes from way behind me before even having to brake.

    Super easy to just hit the hazard button in a moments notice.

    So I think I have a good way to get strobes using the factory turn signals, but it requires some cutting of wires.

    Getting this module, you can control up to 6 LED lights (4 turns signals and 2 front side markers)
    https://www.strobesnmore.com/Strobes-N-More-LED-Flasher.html

    If you installed 2 diodes into each splice, that should allow power from the turn signals to reach the turn signals, but not back feed into the controller, and power from the controller to reach the turn signals without back feeding into the turn signal system.

    Im not 100% that this would work, but it seems like it would work perfectly.

    I have a spare set of cannons laying around and I’ve been thinking about doing this. Do you mind sending me some pictures? be curious how far you drilled and what you used, etc.
