when i had strobe lights in my head lights, i drilled a hole right next to the headlight bulb. i would say to put it as close to the headlight as possible.

Dont do that its crazy youll burn the gel on the strobe. Keep as far away as possible from the actual headlight. I have had mine in for about 4 months now.

Total_overkill is right try to keep them as far away from your headlight bulb as possible. The only thing is try not to buy the cheap strobe lights that you can buy at the local advance or auto zone with the gel caps. they don't last very long trust me i had two sets of them. Instead if you don't want to pay a large amount for some strobes street glow makes some that has the zenon tube ( glass tubes) that are about ten times as bright and last alot longer.

i've got the street glow V2 strobes in my car now and there great, you can have the bulb vertical or laying sideways inside the housing for those smaller headlights, and yes they are bright and they've lasted 6 months (3 of which have been winter) and very easy to wire up....only prob, i dont know about anywhere else but here in nova scotia your not aloud to have blue light comming off your vehicle in any direction...i have a cop nicely inform me one day while i was talking with friends and had my strobes going (yes i was even parked)
