yeah as I said earlier 95 can go to 97 and vice versa without hyperblink. you may get the brake light bulb.
Tabaka is right, my brake light bulb magically disappeared years ago.

Hi guys, I'm just curious if anybody else out there has thought about the possibility of putting sequential turn signals on their sc? (like the ones on the new mustangs or old t-birds and cougars) I was thinking that would look pretty awesome on an sc. Could it be done using the 2 bulbs for the brake lights and the turn signal? Any thoughts? Anyone? Post or pm me. Thanks

I hope this catches the eye of someone that commented here before. I have a 1993 and just swapped 1995 taillights with harnesses...being new and not doing enough research I realized after I was done that I have the Hyperblink issue. Do I need to get a 1995 lamp failure sensor? I see now after taking the 1993 tails out that the 1995 have extra bulbs. Any help here? OP here posted a link to a dead eBay sale which has the unit for a LS400... are these units interchangeble or year specific? Any help would be appreciated.

You can wire in resistors to handle the hyperblink, there should be a link somewhere here in the forum/DIY thread.

Yeah I remember reading about the resistors when I was considering LEDs. I was hoping someone could chime in whether the part OP linked was interchangeable between models. It's my dd and I'm not too keen on messing with the wiring unless I have to. There is also a wrecked 95 in a JY near me so I was going to go pull it off that car if it solves the problem.
