TR2/3/3A 3rd brake light question

I have the brighter LED bulbs in my stop lights. I also have a light bar mounted on my roll bar so the semi trucks will see me.:friendly_wink: I recently bought a "strobe controller for LED stoplight". This blinks the lights 3 times then they go solid. My question is if I install the strobe controller just "before" the the lite bar on the roll bar will the two rear stop lights strobe as well as the lite bar or will just the lite bar strobe? I was hoping to just get the light bar to strobe and not the two rear lights?
 
As long as you feed the corner lamps with power before the flash module, they shouldn't flash.
 
If the wiring goes from the brake light switch, to the tail lights, to the module, and finally to the roll bar light bar...then only the light bar will triple blink. The rear brake lights will not. If you want the brake lights to blink, you will have to mount the module between the brake pedal and the rear lights...or...run a wire to the roll bar first, and then from the roll bar lights to the rear stop lights.
