If your 3rd is LED'd then it might be pretty cool on the 3rd brake light. I have seen them on the regular brake lights and don't like them there, not sure why but that's my take.

I've seen them a lot on motorcycles with & w/o LED brake lights, love them (in mode 1) on bikes

ok guys, did this last night at my work parking lot, using my spoiler stop light, so i have it wired in mode 2, also took my spoiler down and wired it in there, splice some wires and made some extension wires so i have more play, and mounted that module in the spoiler with double stick tape. easy mod, might be the first 4th gen to have a blinking high mount stop light

and this all costed me 35 bucks.

Ugh...I hate those freakin' things with a passion. I seriously think they instill road rage for the person behind you. There's a reason why they didn't catch on in popularity from the car manufacturers.
Not trying to bash, but I'll bet a lot of people feel the same way.

I think the BMW 7-series has some thing similar.

well i guess i am the first to have this on my truck

, its pretty kool, thinking about which mode to use tho, i still like mode 2, mode 1 will make it flash 4 times, then a steady on for 1 sec, and then itll repeat it.

Not me. No offense but back in the day we used to call that like uhm "rice". But it's your ride and if it makes you happy, then it's all good.
