I can confirm mine also do this. If the brakes are applied, the LED rods go off and then the actual bulb goes on then LED's come back on when brakes are let off.

Huh? The rods go off and all you see is the break lights shining threw? Then when you let off the breaks the rods light back up? Is that what your saying?

Brake Applied = Rods OFF, Brake Bulb ON
Brake Let Off = Rods ON, Brake Bulb OFF

They are never on TOGETHER.

And mine also do make a "click" noise when I hit my brake (my hearing is pretty bad, I can only hear it in my garage with the engine off).

I just notice that, beside the 4 led on the side the rods also turn off when braking...

Hmmm..... I were not paying attention to that before I modded mine set... I hope you all get them straighten out. I know that the rods supposedly on all the time with or without braking when the lights are on.

Mine are on braking or not. I'll have to have someone look at my led when I brake. The only things about the rods is the brake lights will out shine the rods when braking. I guess that's the purpose of the ricky effects
