New LEDs -brake lights- Flashing.

[treybrad]

How difficult is it to install something like the e3 strobe? I am reasonably competent but have little electrical experience

Pretty straightforward -- I imagine the E3 is just like the one I used.

There will be a ground wire, and a power wire. LEDs draw so little current I just tapped into the existing taillight wiring. Other than that, there's a wire that you can jump to select the flash pattern, one to dim the intensity, and one to synchronize (which I left unconnected).

Just like Treybrad my flasher didnt flash correctly when the engine was running, after numerous attempts to ground and install filters from Street they still do not work properly.

Well glad it wasn't just me. I'm pretty handy with a soldering iron and can usually get most things electric working, but the StreetFX flashers and the NC just don't like one another....

Save your money. At any angle other than looking down the barrel of it, it will disappoint. Look for a red SMD format bulb similar to this one...

It will make better use of the reflector to give you some off axis lighting
