I'm interested in buying some emergency lights for my JK. It rained pretty hard here in PHX and it was very hard to see. All of a sudden there were dozens of cars with emergency lights it looked like a neighborhood during Christmas. I was told it was legal to have them as long as they weren't blue or red. I saw ones on pick ups that flashed amber and the front had amber flashing as well as white strobes. There were all in the grill on the sides and the space between the tailgate and bumper.

Does anyone know where I can get those? I know I probably won't use them practically but it would be good oppurtunity to get my younger sons into the garage to help me.

All vehicles have hazard lights.
The switch has a red triangle on it.

Have you read your manual?

I'm not talking about the hazards I'm talking about the ones that flash and strobe like fire trucks.

Like that but without the red they had amber ones.

You can buy a strobe kit, popular brands are Whelen and Shome - Id reccomend 15w per bulb, so if you're doing a 4 bulb setup, get a 60w kit.

Personally, I don't know why you'd need them.. ever.

Me either I just think their cool and my kid is really into electrical stuff so why not?

Check your local laws on the use of strobes, sometimes they are used by emergency vehicles to trigger green lights.

Those are actually Emitters - which send a signal to certain street lights with proper hardware. I don't believe they come in strobe tubes.

There are a bunch of sellers in China that have these on eBay. I just order a two lamp (24 LED's each) amber setup with controller to play around with. It was a whole $8.00 shipped. The mode I like best is when each side flashes eight times fast before switching to the other side. It's a real attention getter.

Ya just some LEDs, you can get some temporary ones that you just put on for when you need them or permanent ones. i have some that i use only if needed with settings for blinking or just constant red or white light

Go on Galls.com, they sell stobe kits for vehicles.
