Strobe first brake lights

I am by no means an electrical guru which is why this question goes out to you guys.

I am looking to see if there is a way to get the break lights to strobe/flash once and then stay continuous.
Most emergency vehicles do it but I don't know if that's also just part of the awesome lighting packages they have.
I'll eventually be tinting them a little so the extra attention grabber would be nice. Yeah you can always double tap the pedal but that's a whole lot easier of a habbit to form on a motorcycle than a truck.

Thanks much for any input

I installed the plug and play verison on my 01 Corvette back in the day. I felt that it was such a small car and it sat so low that it would be dumb not to have it. Looking back on it, it really made less sense. I only say that because it you can't see a White Corvette in front of you, then you will not be paying attention to the 3 seconds of blinking red 3rd brake light either. Although, I am still glad i had it. (Peace of Mind)

I have thought about getting one for the Tundra. I ended up getting a Plasma Glow Tailgate light bar for under the tail gate for some extra brake lights. The turn signals on the Firestorm(I have it) are like the Nightrider light. It scans in the direction you are turning.

StevenD: Thanks I'll have to check with Slim.

VetteLover: Thanks. That site has the 3rd breaklight pulser which is the idea I'm looking for ... Just on all 3. I've had one of the light strips before but was never happy. Always got too beatup and if one light went out it drove me nuts.

There's a video on there too of them in a 300. They look pretty sick. Just not sure how the local cops will like them. Might have to start leaving the hardhat in the truck and say I got them for.working some road construction out of state.
