Not our specialty but...

Recently went to the cruise in Laguna Beach and saw something, that I thought was cool, yet I do not know if it was stock or not. It was on an SLK55 that was I was behind for a bit. The third brake light flashed as the car was in motion while braking and stayed solid when it was at a dead stop. Any one notice this before?

Asking you guys because I would think that if it is stock and fit our cars, it could be a cool little mod ... just a thought

With DAS you can program the light to blink and then turn solid when you brake and also when you slam your brakes the emergency (hazards) will turn on for couple of seconds.

The hazards coming on during a full panic stop for a few blinks would be an awesome addition.

both the hazards and flashing brake light would be a nice extra safeguard to grab people's attention if they're about to rear end you, probably would prevent it in several cases.

You should come with me to one of the clubs. I'll introduce you to Melinda, a beautiful Latin bartender who says I look like James Franco and hooks it up with free shots of Cazadores Tequila

As for Mike, you can have him. What are you going to do with a 19 year old? People are gonna think your his dad or that he is your little nephew

Never heard of them. I just looked them up. Anything is good that's not deadmou5...over rated punks.

Kind of reminds me of Andrew Bennett

eventually some things will become "mainstream" because people will begin to listen to it and spread the word and get them exposed more.

It's not the fact that it's mainstream it's the fact that you chase the money and ditch your fans. Have you heard of deadmouses older songs? Compare them with the ones he has now it's completely different. Tiesto was a Trance got now he hopped on the Electro bandwagon because that's where the money is. That's why now Tiesto is known as a sell out. Go to any hardcore electronic club and mention deadmous and they'll laugh at you. It's like those hardcore rap fans that till this day laugh at lilwayne or drake. lilwayne got awarded best rapper alive which is a complete joke because there are far more better rappers than him. With deadmous it's a similar issue.

Tiesto when he didn't ditch his fans was loved and no one called him "mainstream" but he traded his soul.

That's like me making das tutorials and charging money and asking you guys to support me and out of no where I ditch the MB guys and make BMW tutorials all because of money. What happened Karo? You were a die hard MB fan? Well I traded my soul for money.

That's what it really comes down too. And if you think Deadmaus is the electro master...no way man.

Don't get me wrong Tiesto is good and so is Deadmaus but do I think Deadmaus is over rated? Ohh yaaa

For example this guy. His name is Danger. Listen to his music, he is known but he is not over rated. Anyone ever heard of him? No right. He will shyt on deadmaus anyday of the week with his electro.

http://youtu.be/z37R39-mff8 (hear it on 480p, really makes a difference)

Sure Mike, these aren't all Trance but they are bomb. Especially since you own an audio shop. All these songs try to listen on 420p or higher. Really makes a difference from the ****ty 320p.

Soo many to list. Paul Okenfold, John Digweed, Garreth Emery, Victor Dinaire, Mike Push, Andrew Bennett, Yoji, Shogun, Alex Morph, Ronski Speed, George Acosta. Man again soo many to list. This should keep you busy for a long time.

Ohh this is a good one too.

Yay... Karo dropping trance knowledge.

Im with you on the sellout of artist to become mainstream, but I dont mind artists that are "mainstream" but still have their original style. Thats why I enjoy more "old school" artist.
