I'm not either, but I'm always down to watch an install video 😂😂.

My ideal would be to flash at a certain pedal position. Not sure if the car already monitors brake pedal position, but taking advantage of that for a different function would probably be much more complicated than an add-on module. An additional switch under the pedal could do it.

I'm sure in the future when everything is computer controlled this will just be a tune setting.
I think the CTR has brake pressure sensor from factory but it would be complicated to tap into it to work with the brake lights. You would be dealing with the canbus and all that good stuff. I'm sure it is very complicated and not worth the time and effort.

If I knew more about CAD and stuff I'd 3D print a bracket that utilizes the license plate mount that holds a real race car rain light instead, then just tap into the brake light wiring.

The wiring shows you can tap into the brake light for power and serves as a way to turn the light on every time you step on the brake:
