Has anybody modified their headlights to strobe back and forth like a police car? My friend told me it would be just a relay, but I went to an electrical distributor, and they had no clue where I'd start.

 

dont...just dont if u don't kno why u shouldn't all i'd have it say is wow

 

Strobes on a car are completely legal in most states, provided that they are turned on ONLY when the vehicle is parked. Same applies for underbody neons.

 

yes but i'm thinking worst case senario he didn't say how he planned on hooking them up and i could just see an ill placed toggle switch...like in my g/f's car where my knee always hits it(good thing its for the fogs) and get arrested by a cop having a bad day for impersonating a police officer or some crap like that

 

Nothing wrong with warning a guy, cant fault you for that. However, alot of people dont bother to read or find out about local laws like that. Strobes/underbody neons are illegal to be turned on while in a moving vehicle for that very reason (impersonating an officer, emergency vehicle). They are allowed to be installed and be turned on/operating while a vehicle is parked. However, they are illegal altogether in some states so definitely check your local laws!!!!!

 

They are Illegal for use on the road here, but I want them for my little parking lot shows with my friends

 

in that case i kno if u wanna do it cheap there are two ways both suck....autozone has headlight bulbs that strobe in their sport compact section..thats way one...way two is also in that section they sell little bulbs that strobe with a controller buy this then cut the bulb off and run the wires into ur headlights...i'd personally go with part one....but they also burn out quickly

 

In most cases with stobes and under neons {which I have the led neons in red} they just use them for shows like I do . I would never have strobes though.

 

I was thinking about this for the 4th of July why Im doing my fireworks display. Its a showoff thing before and during the show.

 

My leds are strobing on the right side...I'd like it to stop.
