I see you have Emergency brake flash light enabled, can you tell me what this is?
Does it pulse the brake lights quickly if higher than usual pressure is applied or is it activated if the pressure is applied for a set length of time??

And to those who don't know their stuff, probably 99% of people, you'll just look like a knobhead.

I agree with some of the comments about because those foglight knobheads annoy me too. That's why I think these need to be set at a low intensity as DRLs are on newer cars. Otherwise they will be mistaken for fogs.

well im a proper knob then cos until I get bored they can stay on at 40% which at the moment you may just be able to spot them in the daylight.
