    i'm guessing you talking about the "U" shaped ones? i was going to try those out. i havent though. i do have some white strobe lights in my reverse lights. i need to repossision them because they arent as bright as they could be. i have them wired up to a cigarette lighter style plug that goes into the 4 plug adapter.

    Yes, I am talking about the U shape ones. Would they even fit inside the turn signal housing?

    I have white strobes in my rear break lights that I picked up at autozone. They were 10 bux for two and a control box to set the frequency. They have been installed about 3 months now and they are still working fine. Also they look like they may be small enough to fit into the side markers.

    Care to post a link to these U-shaped strobes?

    I bought the 10$ ones from autozone. They broke like a couple weeks after i put them in. Marioburke on the site has strobes from police vehicles as does his friend Terry. they ordered them off the net. They were hella expensive. Like two sets were like 300 dollers or something. I couldnt pay that much for blinking lights....
