Safety Upgrade - Flashing High Mounted Stop Light

Stroboscopic high mounted stop light - The 993 has a third high mounted stoplight. For certain years and models, it is an array of small bulbs behind a red lens that runs along the top edge of the rear window. By replacing the bulb insert with a LED insert from BergFX.com one can buy a brake light flashing controller on eBay for a few dollars and wire them together. The controller will cause the LED array to momentarily strobe flash three or four times before reverting to solid red illumination when one steps on the brake. This function really gets the attention of cars behind you making your action of pressing the brake much more obvious. Today with distracted drivers and the inherent low visibility at night of a low profile 993, I feel, makes this an inexpensive and worthy safety upgrade. This modification may not be street legal in some states.

Here is a video of the results:

I was even, with slight modification, able to fit the controller inside the light bar frame so there was no need to go into the car to do the installation.
