Heres a question then. Im sick of my third brake light decal. You cant read it at night. So i figured id just disconnect that light. I know its a law to have a third brake light but thats not an issue around here. So will it cancel out my cruise if i disconnect it?

Had sequential turn signals on the 3 Fiero's that we had. There was a company that made an easy kit to convert the 1 running light into a third brake light and into sequential tail lights. They were quite popular on Fiero's.

I think the effect is too subtle with a single bulb replacement, but if the multi-LED replacements (Bermuda) were animated in a similar way, that would kick ass.

What firemangeorge said. Tried LED's in the 3rd brake light and cruise failed to work, out they came and back to normal.
I believe it requires the current draw. Not connected no draw, no cruise. Give it a try.

Offended much? Our wagons have a small tail light...same with the cobalt. You need larger tail lights to pull off sequential turn signals. Did you watch the videos in the eBay link? Sure in a round about way this is gay and ricer...but that's just my opinion.

I personally think any extra movement in the lights will help people see me just that much better.

Chefhhr. Really!!
