I had them for a while in my T/A front DRL and back up lenses, they were fun to play with but if you accidentaly hit the switch when you are driving you could get thrown in jail for impersonating a police officer. Anyway make sure the holes are nice and round and that they are the right size so that the strobe grommet fits snug, you dont want moisture in your lenses it will eventually eat the reflective coating off.

I believe there are places that sell the same kits that are used in police cars, so you get the nice, sequenced flashes instead of that random, goofy looking flashing.

I'll do a quick google search.....

Go Here

If linky no worky, go to rimindustries.com

Looks like pretty good stuff there!

Might get some myself!

If you want to get the same strobes that the police squads use, you might want to check out the following:

www.whelen.com

www.galls.com

www.federalsignal.com

You might need someone thats authorized to buy this stuff as they don't just sell to anyone, but they are very high quality strobes.

Might want to visit this place also: www.strobesnmore.com

If you get strobes, get the real ones like the cops use. Everything else will look cheep. I really wanted to get a set for my car but $150-200 is a lot to drop on lights.
