Default Trouble Finding a Tailight

Last spring, I got behind an old guy on an EG on the highway. I noticed that he had a neat looking tail light. As he was cruising, there was a small light in the middle of the tail light that traveled round and round in a small circle.

I've seen the Blue Dot lights but this was different...the dot actually moved in circles. Does anyone know where I can get one of these and what brand name?

Plug "ROTATING AND PULSATING RED LED BRAKE/TAILLIGHT" into google and look at the video options.

Close, but this was like a single led that traveled in a circle. I should of stopped the guy and asked him.

Thanks

I've seen them and they are kind of neat. BUT anything like that around here would attract attention of the squad cars with their own special red flashing lights!
