    hmmm.... Have to think about that one.
    I think you would have to tap into the brake lines somewhere, or maybe the master cylinder, with a pressure sensitive switch to make that work.
    I don't know if such a thing even exists...just thinkin' out loud...

    Yeah we have nightrider style lighting with 16 different patterns for several different vehicles. They could be retrofit in the Vehicross, but our 3BL isn't a good candidate. you'd be better off mounting one elsewhere.

    are there pics of any type of knight-rider light assembly that would look great and replace the oem version? I wouldn't mind changing it out to a much "cooler" version

    The version we made is a direct replacement for GM products, (Jimmy, hummer, Suburban, escalade etc.)

    It's about half the size of our VX light, and would require a bit of modification to make work. I'll see if I can find some old video files lying around. Currently all of the vehicles we had with them (personally) are sold.

    Here is the guys that did the new Knight-Rider Lights... I'm just waiting for the production version...

    They do have a normal single row LED version that "might" work...

    Let me know what you're after, We've made a ton of custom lights, and ours have 16 different patterns in case you get bored of Knight Rider.

    I was originally planning on building our light for the Vehicross, it just ended up that our housing is an absolute pain to work with (pull it off and you'll see, absolutely no room for a PCB) But if you want a light to retro fit or to put elsewhere, We have 16" lights. Plus a controller to adjust the pattern, or you can adjust jumper settings.

    The Vega project was hatched because our 3BL housing sucks. And it'll be perfect for motorcycles looking for extra "attention" safety...

    Pretty soon we'll be doing more and more custom work.

    That's my brother's company for doing custom lighting.
