Lol thats how LED's show on most cameras (phones) This happens when the frequency refresh rate is greater than that of the lighting that the camera is able to capture.

If you are referring to something like this then you have to physically open up the lights and modify them. It is kind of in the style of the amg gt euro tail lights, though startup sequences would probably be tacky.

I was thinking about getting the dynamic turn signals done if I ever facelift to the 2015 euro taillights but I can only imagine the expense and having to ship the lights to europe and back. Also that channel has a lot of videos showcasing his mod and it seems that he is not the only one that does this, found some chinese and polish videos doing the same thing.

Its the same youtube channel from the above videos,

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaX_vks1snsm8avb1G-W-SQ/videos?shelf_id=0&view=0&sort=dd

and his website

Www.rückleuchtentuning.de

You have to mail your existing lights or have him purchase a set where he is (germany) and ship them to you, not cheap.
