Default Lights

Hey guys, I'm looking for some strobe lights for the dodge. You know, like Walker Texal Ranger has on his ram. I own a company and we are always stopping on the sides of busy roads and it seems like people dont see me, "and they are freaking sweet!"

Anybody know where I can find some at a decent price?

for bar lights i guess like KC lighting.

I have some of those in my fog lights. They're just cheap ones I found at Autozone. To install them I just took out my fog lights and drilled a hole in the back of the plastic then slid them in and they had a gromit that held em. They're not very bright though so it'd be hard to see them during the day.

the lights are blue. They are called hide aways. you need a special power supply for those. They are light bulbs that you put into your headlights (by cutting a new hole). I am in the FD and have blue lights on my truck. I dont have hide aways however, cause they are a lot more expensive. The best thing to do is go to www.galls.com or www.thefirestore.com and get Whelen® LIN3™ Series Surface-Mount Super-LED™ Module. They are easy to install, and they dont require a seperate power supply.

I had these strobes in my headlights. $ 99.99 for professional series (same as in police cruisers, fire trucks).

Thx for all the info guys, I went to Advanced and found some that go into the headlights. I have to drill a new hole, but they seem to be what I was looking for. $12.88 for a set of two.

Might be garbage, we'll see after I install them.

Alright, another question, what should I tie my hot wire for these lights into? It's a 12v setup. Should I tie into my interior fuse panel, into a 10-15? I have no clue... It doesnt have a fuse connected to the wire.

WI-200 is what I have

d0od dont install the cheap *** auto zone strobes, your a fool, they are like 10 watts, they are junk, you wont even see them in there, do it right the first time and buy some real ones before you go and destroy your headlights drilling for these cheap garbage strobes.
