I agree that I would prefer not to have to drill through, but I think that they would be sweet on our cars

What's the problem. We drilled through mine to put the strobes in, then sealed the holes afterwards. No problem.

So why the no drilling?

and for the rear I will drill because you cant see inside those enclosures beause of the refractors and its clouded, meaning drill hoels wont be visible
The only way you will see the holes is when you lift the hood. And if done well and not botched than you won't even see them then. It's only a 1/4" hole.

Right on. As long as you're being honest about it now . Just kidding.

I guess laying them there would work. Might they break whne hitting bumps and bouncing around? I don't know.

I used to have Pilot Strobe lights, they had a 1/2'' hole to be drilled. i did it, and almost cracked one of my headlamp fixtures. cause i kinda rushed doing it. its not a bad idea, u can always place a small piece of electrical tape over it if u wanna take em back out!.


but yea, if u do it, take ur time. and make the wires hidden, not lying on top of ur battery and engine compartments. (like mine were)

hehe werd


PEACE

I had strobe lights before one burned out. I didnt take them out I just left the lights in bcuz I didnt want to put anything over the holes. If I was to do it all over, I would get some of those strobes that they have on Fire trucks.


Anyways its your car drill if you want. You're the only that will have to like it.
