This is actually a safety option that is going into a lot of new cars.

I could imagine that being annoying. The one for this car blinks 4 times in 1 second then stops and doesn't work again for 20 seconds. It's pretty reasonable. Also, did you just ask someone WHY they did a mod to their car? That might be the dumbest question I've read on one of these forums.

Wait you mean the entire purpose of a forum is to see other peoples mods and decide if that's something you would like to do to your car or not? Huh must be stupid. I didn't know anything about them but was hoping it was maybe the first 3 seconds you hit the brakes or something. But having it happen every 20 seconds sitting at a stoplight I think would bother me. No need to get all butthurt because I asked a question.

A little out of context I'd say. Also dramatic. Are you a female?

Wouldn't say I'm the one being dramatic when you keep throwing out the personal insults there chief. I'm merely trying to have a conversation about mods over here.

If a moderator wants to pull these posts to clean up the thread and keep it on track instead of derailed like where its going, perfectly fine by me.

Ohh speaking of brake lights, does anyone know how to make the brake lights do what the blinkers do when you hit the pedal? I saw a couple year older, maybe '08ish, Mustang the other day that had them and they look awesome.

Got this puppy in today which I'm sure my ProCharger will be happy about. Also scheduled a dyno tuning session with Jeff Smith now that CTP opened up there doors again this week. Excited to see the results next Thursday!

Also, last night my car was featured on Steeda's Facebook and Google+ sites. I thought that was very cool to spot!

Just picked a new door handles and positive battery cable. Will be buying a new rear window motor for my vert since it just went out. I know I'm a big spender

Picked up a set of slotted zinc coated rotors from brakeperformance.com. Now just need some pads.
