i have them. the same as the police vehicles and that probably wouldnt surprise any of you here since i am an outcast anyways. i have them in the headlights and foglights. federal signal strobes with 90 watt power supply. some one metioned rice i see, thats no surprise since everything out of the norm on this forum is to be considered ricey.
Seems illeagal.
Wonder what the fine is for strobes on a non-emergence vehicle.
Must make it go faster somehow.....
Or look like it is going faster at least.....

hey 157db almost everything isnt illeagal nowadays when you mod your car. carb ex. #'s for example. as long as you use common sense you will be fine.

i'm sure the strobes are for a show car only and not for official use. as far as waste of money, to each is own right? thank god not everyone is dull and boring and mods their car like everyone else.

i deffinately like the idea of the alarm and strobe thing.. thats cool and a very good idea..

but about the strobes in general.. when i had my f150 i did the same thing, but with cheapys.. but they worked, but i also used them for my pressure washing.. but also ahd fun with them..

at one point, i had spent $100 on blue and white strobes (the kind that go behind the grill) and was gunna use them for show, and just to fck with my friends and stuff.. but my truck looked just like a police truck before i did the lift and tires, .. i had a brush guard on it.. and looked just liek one of those offroad police trucks..

but ya.. im done..

but basically.. i think its cool.. and if it didnt cost you but pocket change.. i woulda done it too..
