2014 FXDF Rear Brake/Turn Light?

I have a 2014 FXDF and I'm wondering if there is an adapter that would make the 2 brake lights also act as separate turn signals?
If not what adapter are folks using for the turn signals to act as brake lights?

I use one that I got from Biketronics. Simple plug and play but you have to change the brake light bulbs to red. Others have had good experience with Custom Dynamics

Check with Custom Dynamics or DK customs, if anyone had something, they would.

They cannot be programmed to do so? My stock lights did that, and when I switched to a full fender and taillight, my turns still have the brake signal. I like it

Possibly.....yours and his bikes are newer than my 2009 FXDF. so maybe there is a way to set a jumper or something...my FXDF had a "circuit board" in the stock rear tail light that I cut off. When I changed the fender to a new Wide Glide fender, I kept the old rear harness but cut all wires and rewired everything back there from scratch......alot of folks don't want to get into that kind of thing so hopefully there is a simpler way.

Re reading fhartell14's post, now I am thinking he wants to use the dual round LED brake lights on the newer FXDFs each as a turn signal. Unless there is a way to program it as you said, the wires for the brake/run light in each of the two lights light would need to be separated, and no longer common to each other, so that the brake wire from each side is now separate, which would allow either a brake or turn signal to be applied to the brake LEDS........best thing would be to call Custom Dynamics or another vendor with a similar device and ask them
