Hi everybody (Hi Docter Ned), Okay. (Yes I am crazy)

So my buddy and I are creating a monster in his garage... 97 Accent GT with a 2.0L Elantra Engine, full modified, pushing 230hp ... and while he's working on the engine and the body, I'm working on the sound system, and lighting effects.

The car already has a under carriage StreetGlow system installed that we've had laying around for about a year now... and we want to put in some strobe lights. I know both StreetGlow and EuroLite make the full controls (Chase, Zig-Zag, Triple Flash effects) but I am not too sure where to get these locally (if its even possible) (the StreetGlow was given to us). They are going inside the headlights, clear corners, tail lights, and into the wheel wells (yes, lots of lights).

Does anyone know where to get these kits locally?? Clear (White), Green, and Blue are the colors that I am looking for.

Examples of what I am looking for are the 20Hz SUV (That was at the Comps, and at ImportFest), and Tow-trucks.

Thanks,

Kevin

those strobe lights that you see and accually look good aren't cheap. I mean I got a set of $40 strobe lights from Street glow and put them in my head lights, when I turned them on for the first time it was more of a blinker, it was sooo slow. You need to get the expensive ones if you want it to look good and I think those start around $399 for a 4 bulb strobe. Where to get it? I don't know, ask around at performance shops.

P.S

A 97 Accent GT will never be a "monster"! lol

Oh, I wouldn't use 40$ strobes for the life of me. I am looking for professional ones, I am figuring maybe 1,000 for all the bulbs, controllers, protectors, wires, switches, etc.

Yea it should have some speed in the sucker, I mean, the car is light... 1,000kg, even with the new engine.

If anyone knows any towtruck drivers, ask them where they (especially if they have their own company) got their lights. All the new trucks have the triple flash strobes embedded into the headlights.
