Description
You're driving a Miata. There's an Expedition behind you. Make sure they know you're stopping! With poke-home terminals, this flasher has universal fitment in any setup using an LED 3rd brake light, including LEDs that replace incandescent bulbs. Not for use with incandescent bulbs.
Two options are available:
1. The accelerometer option's built-in accelerometer (go figure!) will flash only during hard braking, 0.6 G or greater.
2. The flash delay option will flash four times when brakes are activated, but with a timeout of 10sec, it will not flash in stop-and-go traffic.
These are a great option for NAs, NBs, NC soft tops, and Fiats. We carry plug-and-play options for NC PRHT cars as well as all NDs.
Bear in mind that for NAs (only) using most LED bulbs (i.e. low-resistance) will make the cruise control stop working. The GTR.LED601 bulb will retain your cruise, but it's heavy enough to be likely to fall out of the socket (which is why we don't carry it). You can try that bulb, but plan to do some problem-solving to get it to stay in place. Small detail - in mid-97, Mazda swapped this bulb from a 921 to an 1156 - those bulbs stay in place, so we carry those here. All NBs use this bulb, so this flasher with the bulb linked will work great.
*Note that the Hotwheels is for scale only, and isn't included.

Great product, helps make our small cars more visible.
Hey, thanks for the opportunity to review this, but I have not had a chance to try it yet. So many other bits to put on the car. But it will be done eventually and I'll edit this, or post a new review then.
This 3rd brake light flasher works great. It flashes 4 times as you apply the brakes and has a 15 second delay so it is not flashing all of the time in stop and go traffic. The installation was straight forward, with the hardest part being the removal of one panel in the trunk to gain access to the connection. I really like the extra peace of mind I get know the Miata is a little more visible when braking in traffic. I highly recommend this upgrade!
As the title states this is probably the best plug and play flasher you can buy for a 3rd or 4th brake light. Easy to setup and functionality that works well. No stupid continuous flash like other cheap models.
