I was at a nearby meet around my area and I noticed one of the cars there had blinking brake lights? Every time when the driver press on his brakes, it would blink like 5 times. I was wondering do you guys know how he did that and can we do that on our accords too? Thanks in advance.

Some newer cars have been fitted with warning brake lights. A flashing brake light is suppose to get the attention of the driver behind, more than a solid shinging brake light. So this was an older car you saw it on? If so, that's a bit of custom wiring.

About as pointless as the sequential turn signal on the Mustang, if you ask me.

Thank you for explaining in a better detail of what I'm talking about! But yeah, that's the only reason why I want to do this on my accord cause I tend to apply my brakes a few times before I stop so I can get the attention of the driver behind me.

I like the turn signals on the mustangs, but ONLY mustangs.... it's so lame when douches with an Eclipse try to imitate it.

Apparently it's actually a throwback. One of their models from the old days did it.

I saw a guy who modified his previous gen Stang to do it...except it wasn't LED. It....looked....awful.
