Just recently put in sequential tail light kit in my 03 convertible. The companies sell an ef27 toaster to slow down the blink. I see them on eBay for $10 vs $35 through light companies. Does anyone know if they have been modified in any way.....?

I am not sure about the cheap ebay ones but I know americanmuscle.com sells a quality unit called Raxiom modified turn signal flasher. They sell for 49.99.

Don't cheap-out when comes to electronics, go to a reputable company like American Muscle.

Not trying to be cheap at all. I was looking on autotrix website and they use what the say is a modified cec industries ef27 flasher. I was trying to find out if anyone knows if the really are modified. I doubt they open them up and change them.

I found exactly what I was looking for. Changing the capacitor in the toaster slowed them down right to where I wanted.

Can you post a video of them? I am thinking about purchasing the sequential tail light kit and want them slow like the s197 cars.

I will take one tonight in the dark. I don't think they are quite as slow as the factory installed s197 cars, but they are definitely slower than before changing the capacitor in the flasher.

Looks cool but they still seem to be a little fast.

I think the only way you could get them any slower would be altering the control board for the sequencer itself. Slowing the flasher any more I think would be questionable with the blinkers being too slow.
