want color led light in your headlight to blink with the alarm?(no drilling!)

i figured it out and i'm going to share it with you guys. no holes!!!!!!!!!to drill!
if you have the 97-99 headlights, look at the corner close to the grill, there is a hole that is made to relieve moisture on the top inner and lower / you can stick a led bulb in there and it fits snug on the lower hole/ put some silicone to hold it/
here's the tricky part. ppl with after market alarm is easy, tap the wire to the existing blinker and ur done!
ppl with oem alarm, run the wire to where the inside dash blinker is/ take it apart, there is a positive wire inside, tap it to that wire and ur done. when the inside led flashes, the led in the headlight flashes too!

very cool when you see it at night and no hole is drlled, so if you get bored of it, take it out. this mod will codt you $2.75 for the led and about 50 pennies worth of wires.
have fun.

i donno if the 95-96 have the holes.

That's an excellent tip! I'm going to have to do this! I've been wanting to do this for quite a while but was hesitant to actually drill. This is awesome!!

i have done this on most of my cars and will be doing it to the max in a few months. i feel that the led will shine best in the middle of the rear of the housing. this way the hole housing will light up.

Sorry this is a little OT, but you are the only person I know with the Razzi body kit? How do you like it? How is the quality?
Thanks,

It will blink at the same time as the led inside the car or it will blink when some one hits ur car. I dont want my head lights blinking at night(not head light but the led inside). U know how much attention u will get. I will wire it to my clerance light so in case some one tries to rob my car different lights will go to atract attention of people(hopefully thief will run away)

If you want to do it the correct way go to any DEI dealer and purchase the LED scan module, it connects using 12+ and -trigger from your starter kill or via switch. The module has 5 led's and will do different patterns, it looks good in the tail lights, I also put ones in the side markers and in my corners, people think its cool. I had one cop give me a hard time telling me that it was impersonating an police car but other than that its really all good.
Yes I have the Razzi kit to be different because everyone and their mother has the Stealn' kit. It fits great I love it but its now for sale if your interested. I'm doing something different with the car for next season and the style of the kit will not match my changes. I had posted it in the parts fs bbs people bid on it then when it came time to pony up the cash they all disapeared typical. I also called my friend who owns Razzi and got a kinda group deal going but no one answered me (one person) so that never got off the ground. Send me an email if your interested,I'm selling it cheap!
