Sadly, I can report that this mod is nigh on impossible on the T6.1 LED rear clusters. There is no easy access inside. I have a spare cluster that I’ve been experimenting on. The only easy way inside would be to cut the lens off but there would be little hope of re attaching it so it looked OEM. It’s not one flat PCB inside with all the LEDs on
I am lazy and I have simply purchased a pair of tail lamps with all the bells and whistles included.
It is an aftermarket product but the quality is seriously good.
They look exactly like OEM but there is slight difference in their functionality (apart from the obvious animations).
The OEM ones illuminate only 3 areas(shown below) when the brake light is on without the side lights.
And these illuminate all 4.
The side light and indicator animation/sequence can be activated/deactivated by connecting/disconnecting external jumper wire.
Additionally all tail lights are equipped with a provision to connect resistor(each lamp come with 3 of them already installed externally).
These resistors can be added as required by simply plugging in provided connector.
I had to use only one of these resistors(indicator).
And finally the lamps come with 2 sets of connecting adaptors so all combinations of plugs and pining are covered and the whole installation process is literally PLUG & PLAY.
After the purchase the seller offer me the option to pay extra
$69.63 ≈ £55 ≈ €66 to cover VAT and duties.
I refused and effectively had to pay extra
€19 ≈ £16 on delivery.

Ok, so I've mounted. Previously had version with dynamic indicator but it required extra boxes with led controllers outside. New version has it built in, only has longer cable. Fitting is not as good as previous version but still acceptable and it has brighter indicator leds
