Why not ask me? LoL, I had them in the clearance lights, headlights, and fogs, I also have four more in the rear in all the clear portions of my taillights. I never tried putting them in the red areas, but they are so bright they probably look like red ambulance strobes.

they come with 4.

strobes are ghey....you need lots of bulbs to look pretty dave. i had 16 bulb on the car at one point /right now i have 8/ 4 front/4 rear. ( the 4 in the wheels well blew out cause of rain/weather.....same with the ones under the car.
make sure you mount them internal.

I have a basic ShoMe 65watt kit w. 4 strobes. headlights and corners. They work well, and have been through 1 winter and lots of bad weather without any problem.

I have a signal stat 6 strobe kit and a signal stat 2 strobe kit. One in each corner light, one in each front turn signal, and one in each red section of my R34 taillights.

I let mine go for $200 because they come with 6 bulbs and I threw in my headlights as a freebie ;-)

Dave I just remembered, for the switches that adjust pattern and speed your going to need "momentary switches" I had forgotten what they were called. Can anyone elaborate on the wiring scheme of the momentary switches, my memory is a little foggy and I don't want to give the wrong instructions.

they have write ups, instructions online, i remember seeing them..its a pda, per model number...i have a shoMe kit, and i need help also, and im generally good at wiring.....

also....i need actual bulbs (strobes), ive got wires and powerpack....

are they universal? or do i have to buy "shoMe strobes"?

TsingTsaoNYC

Arnaud,

No worries man!! I got all the wiring diagrams from Whelen's website. Just a quick question, where did you buy your push button switches from?

P.S.
When you gonna install that smaller pulley??

momentary switches as in, they have springs, so u can press them down, and they pop back up when u release em? just a regualr push button...

Yup thats what I have, just regular toggle switches.. momentary ones would be retarded... how would you leave them on if you park your car?

MaximaRider

I have toggle switches for on/off & momentaries to adjust speed/pattern. The toggle switches I picked up at radio shack for barely nothing.

ok, i was wondering, is there a momentary switch, like a button u have to hold to strobe, and let go and it stops....now if u park ure car, u have a way to press th ebutton and twist and it stays down......hows that for a strobe idea? u cant accidentally leave em on and when u park u have to twist the button so it stays down and u strobe....

is there something similar out there?

im putting my strobes on....maybe a toggle switch and momentary in one circuit? i have no clue id like a switch like i just said above...

or even a switch u can slide a locking pin in so the button stays down and circuit stays closed

Ant96GLE

Yea momentary push button is to change patters but to turn them on and off you want a regular toggle type...
