But for your clean ride, without you abusing them or trying to pull people over, it looks great. I love the little unnecessary toys... just wish I could afford them all.
So for the headlights, do you also have to drill a hole... or will there be a special bulb and/or harness to adapt that?

Yeah, you drill a hole stick a bulb in the hole, seal the hole with the grommet that comes along and plug it into the wireing harness..AND PRESTO...

OKAY SO i installed my headlight strobes....and ran the wiring ...(WHAT A BITCH...) i mean there is almost no where to go through the firewall..anyhow, so i plug all the wiring into the Strobe module....and turn it on....hey it works..hey it doesn't work....HOLY s***..SMOKE...coming from the module....so i pull the wire that is the cause of the smoke....phew...blow on it a few times.....make sure there is no flames.....so i open the module...and FRIED...
no biggy, getting a new one tomorrow..and i know exactly why....one of the connectors that go into the transformer to the headlight strobes wasn't completely seated...causing a short....nothing else got toasted. I pulled my cigarette lighter fuse...(thats where its connected to, for constant power)....
BUT...my car now smells like a plastic factory that went up in flames....
so....moral of this story.....BUY STROBES...ITS FUN. so tomorrow i get my windows tinted...CAN'T WAIT....thursday i re-install my new module..and my MBRP EXHAUST..oh yes people....it's coming.....and will be here tomorrow....YES YES..MBRP....
Thats my story for tonight...

not bad, I've seen that kind of thing before, but everyone that saw the car outside thought the alarm was going off.
