Default Brake lights

I noticed that our brake lights only lights up one bar per sides (after being behind another 4gs). Anyone mod it to light up the whole strip when the brake pedal is depressed?


Also, is the third light LED?

I'm kinda interested too, but I'm more interested if anyone knows if it's possible to program tail lights to be illuminated all the time (during the day) when left in Auto. Seems like the IS tail lights are illuminated all the time.

Not sure. I do know that the third brake light is LED though.

I think this is due to the high reflectivity of the IS tails. I noticed a handful of BMWs look like their tails are always on also.
