I really hope this isnt true or what are we going to do with the cool sequential turn signals? is their a way to make it light up orange in sequence instead of red?

They just need LED lights so they can flash whatever color the occasion warrants. They can still have sequentials, if you as me. The only problem would be under braking, but I think a solution would be that the two light segments not in use during the sequence shine red. So the stages are
Amber, Red, Red
Red, Amber, Red
Red, Red, Amber
Problem solved

Heh, interesting that this came up. One of the test mules at work actually has an amber lens on (what is now) the outer reverse lamp lens. I think it was done as a prototype before the final design was settled on for the tail lamps, but you never know...
