Does anyone know if it is possible to get the hazards to flash when doing an emergency stop? Or is it already active and I'm not driving the beast hard enough to get it to function? Run silent, run deep!! HM Submarines Conqueror, Churchill, Renown, Ocelot, Porpoise, Onslaught.

It's automatic if you hold your finger in front of the button when slamming on the brakes. Otherwise no.
Tie 3ft of rope to a large brick. Tie other end to your rear view mirror. Adjust length of rope until brick hangs level with hazard warning switch. Job done. I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

Or extend the cable to the switch & put it under the pedal so pressed when fully depressed. Sorted!

Was fiddling with a D4 and Faultmate last nights and there was a dynamic brake light option, not sure if that does something. Tried switching it on, but obviously difficult to check when your in the car, but the hazards did not light up. I thought it might flash the high level brake light as this is something you find on other cars.
You guys crease me up! You are either all demented or you like the Heath Robinson mods???? Obviously can't afford to do proper mods after spending all of your money on expensive diesel, stormers, RAI, ATR's???? Run silent, run deep!!

No it's not....
...unless you crash it....they'll probably come on then....and the doors will unlock.....and the fuel pump will be shut-off.....and your D3 will be fooked......but your hazards WILL come on... probably

And maybe your airbags will fire, if you've been good and not messed the car around too much!!

And the talcum powder from the airbags will explode 100ft into the air and then fall like snow....
Do you know what a D3 would look like in this situation?
