in most all states you can use the flashing factory lights in an emergency situation. like as example on the side of the road for a flat tire, or a traffic accident, etc.
Looks like a great product. Georgia has a permit you can apply for to operate flashing lights from Dept. of Public Safety. Daughter is an EMR so this might be easier to make factory lights flasb.
I've been trying to get that permit for 2 years. Just get a circular runaround every time I try. So I just run my lights (yellow/white). Cops haven't taken much notice except when they're off (they don't know what color they are). When they see that they're not red or blue they just shrug.
Tailgate light bars: I have mine set up with NO running lights. So driving down the road, I don’t have a lit up strip. But when I brake/ turn signal, it lights up. Kind of cool. Do that!
@@WR3CK3D-MONK3Y Actually. STL is very low quality work, I would personally go with Whelen Products or maybe even SoundOff, as I have upfitted vehicles ONLINE for games and stuff, so I had to do my research regarding quality of products, how they work, etc. Hell, Code 3 does some nice work.

@Jordy Stefan Thanks so much for your reply. I found the site through google and Im in the hacking process atm. I see it takes quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
We have had three customers in our shop that had one of these completely destroy multiple computer modules. One was a $15,000 fail which was not warranty covered because as soon as you install these your warranty is void! So I wouldn't recommend it.
How is that possible when it doesn’t put out any voltage? Can’t void the warranty either if it can’t possibly be traced by the dealer if it’s unplugged?
You can have it on route as long as they’re not certain colors like red or blue amber and white or totally fine by the way I own an ambulance and I kind of looked at the laws a bit
As far as I know amber & clear are legal for civilians to use pretty much anywhere in the world, red & blue are the colors that are highly illegal to use on a non-emergency vehicle.
I DO PUBLIC SAFETY IN FLORIDA , I AM SO DOING THIS TO MY CROWN . thank you for the video . every light replaced to new LED's will look really clean . great , smart product . . . . .
I know this video is a little old but the general rule for the DLT in Federal Regulations is they can be the same color is the DLT lights example Amber and red and clear on the rear clear and Amber on the front and I believe that's Countrywide I also believe in some states it don't matter what's on the rear end it only matters if you have blue or red facing the front of the vehicle so sides and rear your clear
They would be good for Hazard lights (EMERGENCY LIGHTING) I'd bring to chp and let them look at them and see if u can use them as emergency lights I can use that here in Oregon.
@@portalfire3719 Hazard lights people flat out ignore. I've had people damn near rear end me on the shoulder and then get mad when I don't move (probably because the car in front of me is disabled).

News flash ~ Flashing red lights on the rear of your vehicle IS legal in California. They are called 'emergency flashers'. Flashing red/blue lights on the Front of your car is illegal if you are not law enforcement and flashing red lights on the front of your car is illegal if you are not Fire/paramedic, or ambulance. Otherwise, great video..
@@Toyota-Coaster Um, Flashing yellow lights on the front and/or back of your vehicle is legal.. Yellow forward facing headlights are legal as well. (these are called 'fog lights'..) Small blue lenses mounted in your tail/brake light lens to make your tail/brake lights appear purple from a distance are illegal in California. Is there something specific you are looking for?
I would want a wig wag setting where the front lights alternate and strobe similar to emergency lights. Maybe have the back lights do the same and add a push bumper
That’s really I think for like if you break down of if you use your truck for some Chyna highway worker where you see the highway shut down and you’ll see contractors on the side of the road and usually you’ll see like the foreman sitting there and it is nice truck with those type of lights but also people who plow snow will use that type of stuff and usually put something on the top of the truck So you can be seen in bad weather
So I found your channel after looking for a Silverado content creator, you had great stuff and then quickly moved on to the Ram, no judgement, but do you ever regret the swap? Why or why not? Comparisons?
I just ordered one for my F150, I do volunteer work that I at times need warning lights for. Like you though I of course cannot have any flashing red so I will have to take my brake lights and rear turn lights out of the equation as they are red.
@@MarkBrenner by the way while I have a different make of vehicle compared to you I did want to ask. Have you experienced any issues with your trucks computer systems after hooking up and using this module?
@@MarkBrenner They are worth the $300 it's night and day. I couldn't believe that a little box could make such a difference. I ordered a Banks pedal commander for my 2020 Ram 2500 and it woke it up so much it feels like a different truck especially coming from a 2014 Ram 1500 Hemi. Nice video going to order one have you had any issues with this strobe mod?
If you get your brake lights to flash, you should be ok. Check with your state laws. My state you can have red flashing to the rear. So for example, if you have a light bar on top of your vehicle, you can flash red lights. Your state law is probably the same as some cars have red turn signals that flash. If it was illegal people would be getting tickets every time they signaled a turn. So as long as they are the lights on the rear of a vehicle and nothing facing the sides or front that are red, you should be good to go. But as stated above, check your state law before using them on the road.
I imagine they use these to see how many times an LED light can be turned on and off before it goes out. Even its a couple hundread thousand flashes. I wouldn't spend to much time showing off these features. Maybe during crazy storms or in aid of traffic emergencies! But it seems like a repurpose or rebrand chip to check fail safe stuff. Cool lights tho. Id just hate to have to do all 6 Led bulbs before their time hahahaha.
I just ordered mine after seeing this! Also... why not treat yourself before the year ends? Lol I do a lot of off-road recoveries and roadside assistance whenever I see people in need of it so this will DEFINITELY be put to work for me! Do you know if this can be used while in motion??
I never plug anything into that computer port unless it is officially approved by a well-known company. Last time I pluged something in I fried my entire computer and my car was scrapped
I wish I had hat ! It pups be easier than the old wig wags and light bars I had as well as strobes ! Plug n play. I could use them as a ff/medic in my state with a permit ! My chief also has to approve it. 👨🏻🚒
From my understanding and I just ordered mine know it stays permanently attached to the port you would only remove it if you were moving it to another vehicle or unit put a scanner there they do make a pigtail split so you can still keep it connected and run your ODB scanners
Your back sliding window has hairline cracks in it... They all do...im on my 4th back window.. The crack is in the plastic frame above the slider... It will trash your truck with water
In California it IS a felony to have ANY front facing solid/flashing red light. Amber is 100% legal in Ca.. Also wig wags “flashing left, right, left, right” are reserved for emergency vehicles only in Ca.. as for the rear you can’t have any white flashing whatsoever. Can’t be blinding other drivers behind you. Amber to the front, sides and to the rear are perfectly legal and you are allowed to have a single (1) flashing red light to the rear as per CVC under the third break light law

This is different in every state. Check your state laws, kids.

As far as I know amber & clear are legal for civilians to use pretty much anywhere in the world, red & blue are the colors that are highly illegal to use on a non-emergency vehicle.
You can have the red flashing light in CA as long as it’s in the rear.
I believe being that it's your stock lights and the red is pointing to the rear, they are perfectly legal. They are just fancy hazard lights
1 year later how are the results?
How fast did it burn out your factory lights?

Flashing lights are legal depending on what state and city
