hmm... mighty tempted to strobe.... hahhaha... i know it's totally rice... but it looks SO cool! thoughts, folks?

 

strobe all the way! im doing some research on this so i know which is dumb bright

 

hahaha.. yeah... i saw your post. i dunno about spending so much moola on ricey stuff, tho... i dunno if i can justify that one.

oh yeah, just wondering, do you ever get any trouble for your front glowsticks? (did you get a switch for them yet?)

 

hey, so you'd say that this stuff is pretty POS?

 

i only got in trouble for the nozzle lights out in long island.. the cop didnt see the front grill right now i hooked them up to the fog light, havent had time to put in a switch, but fog goes on, blue goes on..etc

it is a lot of money for strobes, and i also want the siren too, im still not sure if i want them, cause if you think about it, when can you actually use them while driving? you'll get pulled over pretty fast. i may change my mind and finish my exhaust system with a y-pipe and rt cat, if not save up for rims.

 

what is POS? the idea? quality of strobe?...

 

the quality of those strobes i have in the pic.

 

your picture doesnt show.

 

hmm... weird...

well, they're the ones on Ebay:

(page down to see.)

 

my freind installed a $4k strobe system in his car S4. (his dad owns OSI, the major oil company over here on long island, he can pretty much get anything =X)


its all over his car, and its the fastest/slowest brightest friken strobes i ever seen. he had it installed at some elite shop, they installed the secret controls into his pull out ashtray thing. you open it, and it slides upwards.

so kewl, so james bond, so expensive

i'll try to ask him what stuff he's got (if i can find him)

i think with strobes, the more you pay, the higher quality you'll get. i mean, i have some other freinds that got his 'strobes' for like $20, and they strobe....... crappily

 

niiice, i want something cool like that... but i dont have that kinda money. what it the brand of strobes or the elite install he had that made it cost so much?

btw 4k can buy you a SC

 

hey dont be calln my strobes POS'....haha, they truly suck.....sumtimes they flash, sumtimes they dont....sumtimes the rite side will flash twice while the rite side only once....sumtimes actually makes it loook better but then at other times not really....i couldnt figure out how to get the wiring into the car so the strobes are actually in my car rite now....last night they were workn pretty well though cuz of Rememberence Day, i went down to an intersection where people were running around w/ US flags and candles and parked in a shopping cent w/ one strobe light red, and one blue...and my car is white so i had the whole RED WHITE BLUE thing going, looked pretty good......

strobes are pointless

 

strobes only good to show off in front of a crowd. i remember their was this party, and everyone was outside. it was a party, mostly people from another highschool. anyway, we drive up, rev the engine like mad, and strobes blinking like pyscho lights.

it was the funniest shiot ever. if the lights are setup good, it looks sooo fukin P.H.A.T.

but yea, if i had the money, would get a body kit or setup a sound system

 

oh yea, btw, those cost bout $10 and w/ a couple other connector parts from radio shack,bout 12 altogether

i wouldnt trust ebay with strobes. its a nice idea to get for your car, but.... its costly and you could get performance parts instead... someone told me they were gonna put strobes in there fogs, was that you maxedout2g? it was a while back and they never got back to me when they finished.

 

strobes would be the last thing i would get

heres my order of mods

1. tints and other 'cheaper mods' - like bulbs, smelly tree thing for your mirror, and rice accessories

1 1/2. gas

2. rims - this shows people your serious!

2 1/2. gas

3. springs - finish up the exterior, so you can move onto other stuff

3 1/2. gas

4. performance or entertainment stuff - depending on what kinda person you are, or mix and match. im not much of a racer, so im going for 'the hot *** ride' image

4 1/2. gas

5. all the other stuff - like body kits and strobes

and more gas

 

yea that was me.....haha, problem though cuz i have NO idea how to run wires into the car from outside..cuz if i could figure that out, i could also put my LED washers on a switch....also, the strobes have short wires but i could find sumway to xtend em.....

I wired up a pair of Toucan U-Strobes in my headlights like a month ago.. took a couple hours because I wanted to make sure that everything went well (and i had to take apart the headlight to clean it all out because of the dust), but i am about to wire up 1 switch in the flip out ash tray (4thgen) for the front strobes (and i am getting some for the rear lights and the foglights)..

strobes are fun, some people like some dont, ill post pics of mine now tomorrow..

 

Sorry for the newbie question but when strobes are installed (well) will they look like Federal agent cars?

 

even better

 

im in long island too...i could use some advice from a fellow max owner....send me an e-mail maybe you could help me out??? dlmb311@aol.com ---thanks
