Retroshop makes these adapters now.

Curious if they get the blind spot working too ?

I don't believe he did. I think he went with the basics on just getting them functional. It's possible that he may add it in the future but that's a lot of R&D for something that probably the masses won't care about

In that case, I find it ironic that they will sell you the tails with blind spot monitor for an extra $500 over the cost of the non-BSM tails.

He obviously knows what's going on in the forum and probably is offering the blind spot version for those who can afford to buy new. He doesn't have a adapter version with blind spot. He he did release a complete blind spot kit it would be around 2k. That's a lot of money for tails. It's a lot just for 5th gen tails a lone.

I think he just made the taillights I bought worth a whole lot more than I paid for them

So at least if I abandon the project I should be able to make a few bucks.

It’s supposed to somehow plug into the trailer wiring. I’m curious to know how that would work.

It’s just using the turn signal circuits from the 7-way trailer plug. Then there’s probably a switchback module so the brake light drops out when the turn signal is used, and resistors for the LED lighting on the new tails.
At $200 for the adapters, you’d still be ahead to just buy AlfaOBD, the MX Bluetooth, and the harness parts to make the harness yourself and program the BCM the way it’s supposed to be.

That's what I'm thinking as well. It seems like $200 is a bit steep for that though I haven't priced out switchback modules but they can't be that expensive.

I didn't see a pic of his adapters but chances are he is using these

It is from a HD

BTW guys. I am making harness. Pm if interested. They do switchback to flash amber with turn signal. The independent turn signal has to be take it from the front of the truck. BCM or headlamps.

Finishing the install of the BSM Traslator.

Driver Led flickers like a strobe, passanger stay on and BSS not available in the cluster.
