hi. i was thinking about buying some streetglow headlight strobes for my Tc. i was wondering how hard are they to install, and if anybody recommends this mod. any tips are greatly appreciated.

 

I havnt seen anyone install it on a tc, so difficulty level may vary. i know how they look in a tC tho.....check out this vid, its one of the cars:

i have them. i got them in the hibeam slot. the rubber gussets that surround the strobe are not thick enough to hold the strobe snug in the socket so i wrapped them with some black electrical tape until they fit snugly. also are u going to be running the controller? its alot easier to install if u have the controller b/c u can install upto 5 sets and not have to have a individual ground/power for each pair. for the money its a cool buy.

 

hey thanks a lot everybody for the help. i dont know much about strobes, other than the fact that they look pretty sweet, so all your help has been great. ill deff. look into the controller.

 

strobes are hot i think i might get them done!!

 

i got a 4 90w whelen strobe set in the mail late last week. unfortuantely my dremel took a crap so i couldnt get them done this weekend.

next week they will get put in. i'm dremeling out the parking light holes for 1 pair and the other pair is going in the reverse lights. the controller will be under the passenger seat

 

^ I run the liteglow his90 kit in my tC, with strobes in the parking light/footwells/reverse light assembly and they are wonderful...

putting them in the parking/city light location is my best suggestion, and it takes VERY little modification to seat them in there and then just a bit of silicone to seal them up...

Good luck, if you want them in the back, to get them in another location other than into the backup light housing, as the space is really limited back there.

how do they fit in the reverser lights? would you have to make another hole? or do you not have backup lights now?

 

dremelling is necessary

 

With the rear, a 1 inch hole it neccesary and the reverse lights still are in there and work the same... the hole is just comes in from the bottom/toward the lense... there is almost no space anywhere else in the tail assembly to make it work. the front lights you need to shave just a little bit off... the rear... some dremeling/a hole is neccesary.

 

best place to buy a kit? something on the less expensive side possibly?

 

i bought my strobes from oznium, but i actually received a box from this place (and go figure their item cost is 35 bucks cheaper!)-
