Default Strobe light trouble

I just bought a set of white strob lights for my stang. I having second thoughts though. I have to drill a hole in my head light box. Im scepticle to do that cuz if i dont like it im stuck with it. and if i do do it is there any easier way to do it without drilling holes.

i'm 99% sure it's illegal because of potential impersonation of an emergency vehicle, but unless you go around flashing all the time you shouldn't get caught as its very hard to see. The only way i could see you passing up drilling your headlights would be to buy aftermarket lights(like projectors) and wire the strobe system through one of the lights...which would be harder, but easier to fix at the same time.

Illegal in California.

Its not really perminant, headlight pods are cheap and duct tape is even cheaper! [8D]

Flashers are tight dude! It's the quickest and cheapest way to instantly make your car look like a mail delivery truck or low flying aircraft!

Also if you drill a hole in the headlight housing & don`t seal it well, you are going to get condensation like a **** on the inside of the housing,
