Default tail light mod

is there a write up to wire all three sections of your tail lights to light up when you signal or brake??

or a harness kit out there??

The meter-4-it set will give you the ability to have all three light up, but you replace one of the bulb bases on each side to do it (want to say the one closest to the faux gas cap). With that kit, you can set it to chase, sequential or standard.

With that, I'd assume most of the sequential sets will give you that ability, just don't remember my research as to if you can still keep your lights standard if you wanted.

Sequential or chase, it's still a cool and unique appearance mod if you go for it

This is probably a wacky idea, but what about putting a green bulb in there around Christmas time and then doing the chase mode?

Or not. That would probably be illegal, too.

I don't know of anything at the moment specifically for that but as others have said the (Meter-4-It) kit provides what you are looking for. Also, you will be able to switch between Sequential / Chase / and OEM mode.
I keep mine set to Chase mode. Great mod.

Probably not legal but I like how you think...

I have the sequential kit and the install was easy, about 20 minutes. It was all plug-n-play. I liked the chase kits but decided on the sequentials.

It cant be done without purchasing an aftermarket sequential kit.
The SJB just dont like piggybacking bulbs onto other lighting circuits.
