Strobe Light Installation
I am really struggling with going ahead on the install in the heads.
I've considered buying a couple of light housings, drilling them out and installing the strobes. This'll save my headlights, but I have no idea where to install them.
Behind the grill might work but I feel it's too close to the center of the vehicle, and the point of the strobes is to be on the extremities of the vehicle so people can see me on the side of the road.

^ Another With the lights on.
Both videos were taken with my cellphone so the quality isn't the greatest.
Please ignore the mud haha. I made the mistake of not properly applying silicone around the bulb so they leaked, filled up with water, then got really foggy, that is why I no longer use the ones in my headlights (I bought blacked out Harley ones), just the ones in my fog and tail lights. I used a 1" Hole saw to drill the hole, then just popped the light right in, It works and looks great. Super bright day/night. Just make sure you seal them up real well if you're going to take your truck through some deep muddy water.

I like your placement. I only have a step drill bit big enough right now cause i was looking at mounting it in the flat bottom. I hadnt thought to just have a 1" hole in the outside skin and letting the element of the bulb sit through.
