Default Strobes

I wanted to do hide away strobes in my 97 F-150 but have no idea where to put them in my rear lights. It is a stepside so space is limited. If anyone has done it in head lights or taillights input would be appreciated.

In the stepside? The reverse light looks a little small.

I've got some in my turn signals and lower fog lights, been thinking bout adding some to the tail lights, you have to be able to drill a one inch hole in light assembly to get the strobe bulb in the there.

If I don't buy this light bar, I will probably buy hide-aways for my truck since I am a fireman. But we'll see how that goes

Ok, pictures would be awesome. I have a idea for headlights and fog light but the stepside taillights look a little tight.

Idk why you're worried about room, there's more room in a flareside light than a straight side.

that's one of the reasons why I didn't put one in my tail lights, regular beds don't have much room
