Default What "flashes" are available

I couldn't find a sticky thread about this, but is there a listing of the available "flashes" I can have done to my 2015 (or any other year/model) FLHTK by the dealer or another competent place? It would be nice to see all the things that can be done. For example, someone in another thread mentioned an ignition bypass flash.
The only one I've had done is to allow the high beam and aux lights to be on at the same time.
Any interest?

That is a really good question. I have a 2016 CVO Ultra Limited and have heard of a Flash to make the turn signal lights on Tour Pack work in sequential order like mustangs do. But I have no idea what to even ask the dealer for to get that done.

If your passing lamps go out when you turn the high beam on, you can have your dealer flash your Ultra so that the lamps remain on when you switch to high beam. Had this done to my 2022 Road King just last week.. (Should- be the same for 2015 models).

I bought an extra security FOB so I could have a spare (They only provide one). They have to hook their computer up to the bike to program it so that it recognizes the new FOB. I asked the tech if he'd do the passing lamp flash while he was hooked up. He said sure.. There was no charge.

Anyone have any other flashes done on their bike. I also have a FLHTK, 2017. I am interested in this post also.
