I'm of a similar opinion of the headlight modulator, but I added the following product to my brake light. http://www.customdynamics.com/knight_rider_led_light_bar.htm
It actually fit perfectly inside my brake light housing so the oscillation almost looks stock. When you hit the brakes it strobes a few times then goes solid. After you let go of the brake it goes back to oscillating. My stock brake light bulb is still in the housing as well so I have both.
