Strobe lights look cool but they are illegal to run on the street.

I am working on getting a whole new set of lights, so I can keep the originals perfect. I do not drive this car much, so I really do not care if they are illegal. Any more help will me appreciated.

My car has an 8-point Sho-Me strobe system. It's the same company that makes products for emergency vehicles, not the cheap ricer brands.

Here's a clip of my strobes in action <--- right click save as

A guy in my club has one of those cars, very neat looking. I cannot get the file to work is there another way I could view it. Where did you get your strobes from?

why didn't you put them in the headlights? Where did you get them? Do you have to cut into the factory wiring to install them?

Well actually the previous owner had them installed... so I can't be much help there. From what I can tell the wiring is all hooked to a central box installed in my hatch area. There are wires running under the car that connect to it. I think if he had had them put in the headlights too that would have been a little excessive. But the nice thing about this unit is it's wired for two switches, and you can connect the wiring in a different pattern to the main box which will result in different flash patterns by the strobes.
