My friend bought one at either advanced auto or autozone, but I dont remember the name of the kit. Worked very well, it came with a controller that let you modulate the speed of the pulses and the interval between tham and all that good stuff.
And yeah definatly dont use it on the street. Cops do not like that at all.

Actually, I forget where I saw it but you can by electronic boxes that will turn your high beams and rear turn signals into strobes. Just like the Police. I will look for them soon.
I hate the strobes that can be bought at Autozone and Pepboys and shit because eventually someway or another, condencation(sp?) will get in the headlight and make it turn yellow with time.

I'd rather go with the Police "wig-wag" system with the headlights than some cheap ass autozone thing.
I was thinking about getting it to pull a prank on my friends since I already have the siren and a extra set of strobes with red/blue lenses.
It would be cool as hell to have the headlights flashing while racing autocross.. (thumb) .

haha. It's only 90 flashes per minute.. during the daylight.
It wouldn't trip the timing lights because it's the same as someone having their headlights on.. they're not connected/related in any way.

I can have my dreams...and 90 flasher per min sux! Mod that bitch! We need at least twice that! U could drive ur car w/ some techno blaring, we could have a corner worker glow stick party as you go around the track lmao

lmao... dream on!
Then we would need some neon on the cars and autox at night.. and some glowing cones...
It'll be like cosmic bowling in autocross/rave form.
(90Fpm = standard police flashing rate)

damn, that's a good ass idea! Put black lights in the lights on the lot :D lol I bet the orange cones would light up under that. Wow, this is way funnier than it should be lol
and it may be standard police flashing rate, but it's not standard cosmic rave autocross flash rate lol

Ok, I'll add in here.
I've got a multipattern wigwag on the MSP, as the avatar actually shows it. It gets attention at times but name brand strobes really are worth the price. Whelen, Federal Signal, Galls, Code 3, Sothwest(ern?) Police Supply has a line.
Just go look at www.gallsinc.com in the Vehicle Warning. Just be sure to realize that these arent as cheap as the Autozone kind, at all.

wow. pardon my lack of knowlege, but what do these strobes do? ok, i know they flash, but whats the purpose they serve? I thought stuff like that was illegal for highway use cars, and not having any real performance gains, making it a relatively useless mod. I'm down to learn whats up, I just don't always know which way the sky is...if you get my drift. ;)

I guess ppl w/ show cars use them...other than that, break out the neon lights and some glow sticks, and have you a good ol fashioned cosmic autocross!
