Hey! I got your info about the groupbuy on the
focusfanatics forums.
I drive a 14 SE Focus sedan with the third brake light that looks like this.
I'm interested in purchasing a unit (not sure whether fast or slow is better for my tail lights).
From your site, you write: "Not long after the research conducted by the NHTSA, California made it a requirement for all new vehicles to offer a 3rd brake light flasher module." Do you happen to know the code section where you're getting that information from? I think it'd be really handy to have just in case we get pulled over. I've only ever seen one other car in the wild with a flashing third brake light, and that was a WRX with what appeared to be a custom bumper/light set up.
Also, as I'm not mechanically inclined, I'm going to reach out to another forum member I know that's worked on some other stuff on my car to see how much he'd charge to install the flasher module. Is the 3/6/17 a hard cut off for the $35 price?
Feel free to respond on here or on focusfanatics. Same nick there!
EDIT: Most importantly, I looked at your writing diagram where it mentions cutting power wire--is there any device I can use that will keep the power wire intact without any cutting (maybe some sort of tap)? If so, do you mind linking me? I'd like to keep the car as stock as possible with minimal cutting.
