Sequential Tail Lights

TrueBlueNJ · Jul 7, 2006

I've seen the kit for the complete sequential tail light system but I don't like how it also causes your brake lights to act sequentially as well. I think the sequential turn signals look great and are a nice touch. I have seen the kit functioning on another stang in front of me one day and with the brake lights also hooked up to it made it very confusing, especially when the he stepped on his brakes and had a blinker on at the same time. Not to mention that it is also illegal here in NJ. I would just plan on changing it back for inspection however. Does anyone know if they can be used just on the blinkers and not the brake lights like the older stangs from the late 60s/70s?

Check these out. Believe they only work for the turn signals, not the brake lights

It sounds to me like that guy just had them hooked up wrong. Ive never seen any kit that makes the brakes sequential as well.

They are good and easy to install the price isn't bad to.

Webelectric makes a piece that let's you bypass the sequential brakes IIRC. Although I had them on my old 97 and I think they only cycled once when you pressed the brake pedal, then stayed on like normal.

TrueBlueNJ · Jul 7, 2006

yeh when the guy i saw hit the brakes they cycled once and stayed "steady on" while he had his foot on the brake. I'd still rather just go with the turn signals. Thanks, I'll check out those links.

I think the 'chase' pattern is cool.

I also bought that kit about 2 months ago,really like it.Have gotten a few compliments on it.I initially was going to buy a kit off ebay and decided to search the internet to see what else was out there and found the kit at meter4it.
Can change a jumper to set them to standard,sequential or chase.Nice kit.
As far as brakes on this kit,when you hit the brake they sequence on,stay solid and when you release it they chase outward to off.

Yeah, I hadn't seen that before

Trueblue- The hardest part is installing the flasher, not much room under the dash Splicing the wiring wasn't too bad, my instructions weren't too clear on some parts so I just went by the pictures.

So with a blinker on to say.... the left and you are at a stop. What is the tail light on the right doing?

the right tail light is on solid. i have the meter4it kit and it is by far the best kit out there! the chase pattern is awesome! it is an easy install and will attract a lot of attention

http://www.meter4it.com/96-04_Mustang.htm There are some videos there of the various modes of operation.

Might as well throw my .02 cents in here.

I bought my kit from http://www.sequentialtaillights.com/

I went for the extra $10 for the brake module. Therefore when I hit the brakes they stay stock and don't sequence.

SaleenGT2001 · Jul 10, 2006

i like the way the brakes sequence. you hit the brakes a lot more than you use the signals.

QUICK91LX · Jul 10, 2006

i have them and my brake lights work in sequence too...i kinda like that, somethin different...the brake light sequence happens faster than the blinker sequence, so its not all that distracting or confusing...ill see what happens when i go to inspection next june
