Default Sequential Tail Lights?

Anybody know how to make this mod rather than buy it? I'm sure it can't be that hard. If all else fails who knows a good place to get a kit? Anyone had problems with it?

I do not know how to make it but I bought a meter4it kit and have had no problems with it.

I got mine for $50 off eBay from a reputable dealer.
You'll have at least half of that in parts,if not more, and 20X the headach if you tried it your self.

I had seen a deal on TV where they took a small elecric motor and put like a spool on it or a plastic piece with ribs on it andwhen you had the turn signal on, the motor turned and each of the ribs pushed contacts together to turn on the lights. Each rib was a different length around the spool for thelength of time each light needed to be on then they all endedtogether. Or you could just buy one here

I've actually thought about figuring this out. I'm an electrical engineering student and I'm sure it's not all that hard. Just a relay spliced in I'd guess. I'll probably make my own when I feel like doing it/have the time to do so. Not now though - finals are coming up but maybe a good project for xmas break. of course if I do it I'll post it up here.

if you're going to buy one, I'd so go with the one from meter4it.com

Just seems like it won't work right. With my luck I would get it to work then one side would be going quicker than the other or I won't be able to mess with the electronic flasher and get fustrated lol.
