Default Strobe Light Installation

I am going to be installing strobe lights soon (already put the two in my cargo light) and I am looking for ideas for location in the reverse lights and headlights.

Anybody got pics of where in their lights are installed?

And before I get the flamers complaining about having strobes, I work in construction and often work on the side of the road in neighborhoods.

I have mine installed behind the reflector part of the brake light. When doing it just remember to install the strobe bulb close to the factory bulb to get maximum use of the reflector.

Currently I have a dash light but I'm about to add multicolor led hideaways in my fog lights. The headlights can be done but more difficult because it's a double housing. Meaning you'll have to drill a rather large hole to get to the reflector housing. In the fog lights it's much easier

I have lights on my POV. I installed one in each reverse light, one in each fog light, and one in each headlight. I can post pictures and possibly even a video for you in the morning when it's light and I can take pictures.

Cool, I'd appreciate it. I've installed one in each reverse and one in each side of the cargo light, I'm just waiting on the headlights till I see another install so I can figure a good location.

For the headlights, I'd instaled some projector conversion and I just used my rings
