The tailgating warning light is not just a distance thing though is it?
The minimum gap is determined by speed (presumably because of stopping distance), so maybe with bigger brakes the gap is smaller?
There's some other logic in there as well I think, but quite what you'd probably need to read some Bosche doccos to find...
I'd imagine it works out whether a warning is required based upon speed and distance. The speeds i've been going and the distances spaced should have triggered a white warning, the R brakes aren't that much bigger. It seems very unreliable in giving a white warning when compared to my GTD.
In other news. I notched out the front cap for the rain/light sensor so I could hide my Blackvue front wiring (power and front-back link cable) all the way up to the headlining after the cap. Worked a treat. Then set about getting the magic power box sorted.
All was going great until I realised I have ordered mini-blade add-a-circuit fuse connectors for my power supply! Because the mini fuses are mainly on the edge of the fuse box, there's no room for them to make a decent connection as they are recessed quite deep and the blades can't reach.
Ordered some regular sized ones. All the magic box wiring is hidden and pulled through behind the dash to the glovebox for ease of plugging the add-a-circuit wires when they arrive. I wrapped the power connection between the magic box and cigar lighter plug of the blackvue's main lower lead in bubble wrap so it won't rattle behind the little cubby drawer on the drivers side dash.

Is tidier than that:-
Replacement cap is about £6 to restore to factory fresh when it is sold. You cant see a trace of wiring elsewhere in the car - so easy to hide it.
