Anyone install a 1 touch turn signal?

One feature I'd really like to have on the Z is a 1 touch turn signal. Doing some quick searching I came across this piece: Blinking Smart One Touch Lane

Sorry, but I have to shake my head at that.

I hate those blinkers to be honest. But I'm not against modding a car

Yeah, not that person. I rented a bare bones Ford super duty from Home Depot yesterday and noticed it had the 1 touch feature and figured it must be easy to install. I like it so figured I'd see if anyone else has installed one.

I am a fan of them.. My 09 Chevy 2500 Duramax has them but I wouldn't bother putting them on the Z

Seems like while this device blinks the light, your turn signal indicator on the dash doesn't blink to indicate it's working unless you get the plus version and splice that into an unused light on the dash...ghetto

I welcome any other input if someone has installed this feature.

I was surprised that the 2014 Z still didn't come with this feature... Seems like lots of cars have this

My wife's 2013 Hyundai Elantra and daughter's 2014 Rogue (the new model) have this feature. It blinks 3 times only.

Take it or leave it.

My cousin's five series has this. I hate the feature...it doesn't signal long enough for all the idiots on the road.

Why don't we all just use the blinkers like a normal person? Keep the signal on before you switch lanes then turn them off once you're completely in the next lane.

Too much multi-tasking!
