How do you wanna set it up? directly to the battery with a fuse and switch? or are you gonna splice it to one of your current wiring?

i had strobe lights in my other car before... i ran it directly to the battery with a fuse. i routed with the factory wire loom through the firewall. hooked it up to a switch. i then ground the switch and ran it back to the lights. i then grounded the lights.

btw... if you're not experienced in wiring up electrical components. you should let someone else do it.

Ummm...what's the purpose of this? Are you an EMT?

I couldn't imagine cops letting you get away with strobes in your headlights if it wasn't for something official...

its just to mess around
trust me, im not trying to get in trouble for imprsonating a police officer
just to mess around with some people i know, to show off, move slow people from the fast lane, drive thru the ghetto without getting jacked, etc

strobes are also legal here as long as you dont do stupid shit with it and they arent red/blue

Usually involves breaking the seal on the head-light leaving you vulnerable to condensation.

Not to mention the ramifications for impersonating a police officer.

Id be extremely careful with this mod (off road use only)

if you use real police headlight strobes... you don't have to worry about condensation problem..
