I picked up a used S10 not long ago. It's had more than one previous owner.

It's got these great rear accessory lights (top and side of license plate). Safety flashers of some sort that can be set to a variety of patterns. They can be turned on or off with a switch. There's also an Admore light bar at the bottom of the license plate.

Does anyone know what they are? I don't think they're Admore.

Thanks!

They look like emergency strobe light flashers for LEO/Fire/Rescue/EMT vehicles.
Perhaps older Skenes or Whelens?

The top ones appear to be red and blue. And that's a lot of lights for being an extra brake light. Would make sense for a working bike, maybe an escort bike like the ones you see traveling with oversized loads. Or maybe funerals.

That's what I told my wife, when she asked me who was the person on my phone scheduled as an Escort Service? I told her that it was an escort service, in case I ever had to transport something very large:):)

you can have red on the back but not blue . . . .
. . . . or green, or purple . . . . "white or amber to the front" and "red or amber to the rear" . . . . only. "No "beacons" or alternating headlamps (wig-wags)". A person can have them legally, but can't use them on the road, unless he's the po-po.

The side lights are amber only. The top is white on the left, amber on the right. They're bright as heck!

A kind person at Admore suggested Denali. (I'm looking for a new mounting bracket. Which is why I'm trying to figure out what they are.)

If they are Denalis then somewhere on the light lense or on the light housing it would most likely say “Made in Italy”.

What activates them, or how are they activated? On the ST1300 I had it had a 5-bulb aux brake light. It was wired into the OE light circuit. It would flash three times and then steady on. Very good for catching the attention of following vehicles. But if all those lights are on all of the time, that's excessive, and will likely get you stopped. If they're switched, you should be good. What color is the bottom light? Red?

Yes. They're switched. Bottom light bar is an Admore. Red with integrated amber turn signals.
