Very cool setup ant!! It is very visible in the day which is a bonus. Thanks for the vids.
The only thing I would have reservations about is having my rear singals act as 'running lights'. I love that you have them coming on and flashing when braking, but not having them 'on' all the time like the fronts.
Reason - Although it does make you more visible, it might prove confusing to some motorists (I know, just the dumb ones). No vehicles on the road have rear facing Amber running lights. Again, it's more a DOT thing so who really cares, but I'm just saying that any amber running lights are always seen on the front of vehicles (forward facing), not the back. That would be the only "issue" I could see a cop having with this mod....and again, always depends on the cop.
I got nailed for one ticket a few years back for my blue LED POD lights, but I have em on for the same reason you did your lighting mod...extra visibility. If it costs me the price of a ticket once in a while, then so be it. It's a small price to pay for some added visibility/safety and hopefully avoiding a colision....that would cost me much, much more.
