strobes or no strobes

I have upto 5 strobe lights that can be placed inside the car (such as under the dash and in the back window places like that) should I put some of them in?

strobes are annoying, specially if they are in the open where it interferes with your sight... maybe if you put em under the seats and dash it wouldnt be so bad, but I definetly would not leave them on all the time... my .02

hmm.. it depends on where they are placed.. if done correctly and in the right location it can look pretty phat.. but also.. its your car.. so do what you like.. if you think its phat then it is

Ditch the strobes, they're great on the wingtip of an airplane, but in a car I think they're a bad idea. Plus as posted, you'd probably get pulled over if the police saw them on in your back window to see what the hell was making that light.

I agree with diesel. You'll end up with a nice ticket if you get caught.

Yeah, and maybe a nice seizure to boot.

If you put them in, at least install a switch or something like that in case you want/have to turn them off.

Yes definitely, they'd make a cool parking lot/car show mod, but keeping them off when you're driving is a good idea.
