Default Stock Alarm and Brake lights

Afternoon,

Did a search and cannot find what I am looking for so thought I would ask. Kinda supprised I could not find it actually. Is there anyway to wire the third brake light in with the alarm so it blinks when the system is activated? You know just like the taillights do. Think that would look cool as hell at night to have all the lights blink. Any help is always appreciated.

Thank you, John.

The CHMSL (Center High Mounted Stop Lamp) is a single filament setup (brakes only) unlike the taillights which are dual filament (running lights and brake lights). The keyless entry/alarm system flashes the parking lights not the brake lights.

Connecting the third brake light so that it will flash with the parking lights but not stay on whenever your lights are on will be much more difficult than you think.
