how about you NOT put strobes in your headlights. Go to police academy before you play cop

and also, the how to section is for how to guides, not questions

Saftey? My ass man, you get caught with strobes on period on the streets aroudn here and it's a $2000 fine for impersonating a police vehicle. Strobes are for car shows only. And personally I dont even like seeong them on show cars. The attention whoring those shows produce is vomit enducing. That's wht I've only gone to one HIN, and I will only go to one HIN, or Nopi show.

ok the info u guys had given me are great....thanks. So when i decide to get these strobes would i have 2 cut into my head lights inorder to make room for them. i was thinking since i just ordered the black projectors from ebay is it possible to take off one of the 3 LED lights on each side and and put one Strobe in each? But the i would want some a pair in the back 2. would i have to cut a hole in the tail light?

that's the best you can buy and is normally a $300 kit without shipping. if you want a quality kit that is VERY bright, this is the way to go. i have the kit installed on my car and i put the fronts in the turn signal reflectors, and it's bright as hell.

Well i know the prjectoe lights come with 3 LED lights on the top so i was thinking that i would just remove one LED and replace it with one of the strobe lights. Ill do this with both.

And for the people who say that they will be using the strobes at shows....how many shows do u attend? Have u attended a show? Or is that just an excuse to put them on your car? I can get you red and blue LEDs for your visor would you like some of those too??
