IMO to have it blink or come on when breaking is kind of a waste/ricy. Better off to just wire it up with the simple on-off. Being a Canadian model I have the switch on the turn signal stock so it was easy. Basically just upgraded my OEM fog to one with LEDs

It was an easy mod and doesn't look rice-y if you do it the way it was intended: LunaZ's 370Z Journal

It's as bright or maybe even 50% brighter than a brake light. Comparing it to regular tail lights is inaccurate.
I've followed my own car and I can say it's very visible in inclement weather.

not saying the fog light is useless but just saying a lot of times when I am driving in heavy fog I can see the tail-light of the front car no problem...

Front offset set to +30. Hopefully that's the last change.

Don't know. I told them what I wanted as far as looks and this is what they suggested.
