They've been selling those forever. The Thunderbirds in the 60's had this from the factory. I had the kit on my 01 Mustang I had.

If you look on google, there are plans for this system so you can DIY. I used to have the page book marked on my old system.

"* Camaro requires extra set of sockets & bulbs. See "What's included" for details. 1997-2002 Camaro can be modified for sequencers - requires 93-96 tail light housings and minor electrical mods. **Kit will fit all 1976-1981 and 1993-2002 Firebirds. Will only fit certain 1982-1992 Firebirds with all-red rear lights (no amber). Check your car to be sure!"

I always wanted to ask you TGO guys about that.

They did that on Merc Cougs, and I thought it would work perfectly for Firebirds.

I think I will try it once i finish my paint and drivetrain.
