    It's all personal opinion, I would see if you can find a video showing all of them flashing. Also, your local area may not allow that so look into local traffic laws.

    I'm in for a slow flasher for the 3rd brake light. I have led's but I assume your gizmo will work fine on led's.

    Is it possible to have the third brake light flash continuously when the brakes are depressed? From the videos it appears after depressing the brakes to flash only a couple of times and then stops.

    If you want it to flash continuously, I believe I can make it work.

    Is there an option for fast flash on braking and then once you get to a full stop, its solid? Is that standard fast flash?

    It will flash 4 times and then go solid, so close, but it won't flash until you've completely stopped, unfortunately.

    If you have a topper that is wired to the third break light would this still work?

    I believe in that case you would need to add the flasher to the camper/topper and not the cab brake light.

    Is there a way to do that besides what you offer? In essence, could it be done?

    I'm sure I can make something like that, but it would need a speed sensor to know that it's still moving and to know when it's fully stopped and at that point would probably be too much to be worth the money.

    What would be a good estimate on price? I think as long as it works properly, I would be interested either way. I don't need it immediately I'm just poking around. Could you tap in and read from an existing wheel sensor? If not, once OVTune makes the standalone tuner for the 2nd gen that essentially gives us access to most or all ecu info, could you tap into readings from their device?

    I think it'd be unsafe first of all, and also probably illegal. You'd definitely want to check your local laws.
