that is the cool for sure.

Just enough of an attention getter when in traffic - but not too much to be called rice.

The only thing I don't like about this kit is that the lights are Sequential when you put the brakes on. Is there a way to not have the brakes flash?

Zilla,

On my kit (webelectrics), the brakes light up in this order...center-->inner-->outter and stay on. They do not flash.

Not sure if that's what you meant by having the brakes 'flash' and I never realized they did that until I just went out to check.

I think it actually looks cool working on the brake lights too.

Those look great. I've always wondered what it would look like in action. By the way, that was the quietest Corvette video I've ever watched

Sorry you can't do that.

The system just uses a capasitor (on each side) to delay the outside stop lamp illuminating.

Is this the same as the Zip product???? (brake light function)

I could not get the video to work on my computer, but love the idea. My sister had a 67 Cougar and i loved those rear tailights.

And not to beat a dead horse but are they that easy to install????? I almost lost my left thumb last May and it still has no feeling Combined with losing the tip on my right pointer years ago (well they sewed it back on, but it has no feeling either) sometimes simple nuts and bolts have a way of eluding me

Yes I realize i have about lost the simple thumb and opposable forefinger that seperates us for the apes. Not all that bad but I find that some simple jobs end up driving me nuts (no pun intended). I usually end up dropping some small pieces that disappear into my engine compartment. There are a couple down there already

Sorry, back to my question, are they easy to install for a gimp like me??

A Fellow Gimper! I have limited feelings from the middle of my 2nd knuckle on my index finger to the tip due to a small accident with a pit bull.

Well I'm not positive what the Zip product consists of, but as far as the Web one goes, the sequential lights are seperate units from the 3rd brake light flasher.

The blink blinks are 99 shipped and the brake mod is thirty something.

I can't answer your question about the flasher because I didn't buy it but the sequentials are a 10 minute job.
