    first of all this is not for porma or anything, more for safety as an early warning device if ever i need to stop in a highway at night.

    i just added last month a set of fog lamps at the back (under the bumper) which is paralleled to the back up lights. i needed more light kasi when backing up inside our garage at night, so this only operates when the gear is in reverse.

    when i opened the rear lights to connect the fog lamps to the back up light wiring, i noticed that there are no extra leads for upgrades or additional lights. so question, do you guys know of the location, if any, of extra wirings going to the lights, especially to the back? or do i need to add the wires myself? i will be installing the strobe lights inside the hazard lights in all 4 corners. sa harap dali na lang mag-add pero sa likod medyo malayo kasi and i will need to pass the wire under the chasis. any suggestions where to pass the wires in case i will need to wire it myself? i will also be installing a switch on the dash pero dali na lang yun.

    car is a lancer mx 2002 but i suppose this will be a generic thing so baka applicable din yung sa ibang cars. suggestions please, especially from those who have strobes installed. thanks.

    Yebo, sa tingin ko you'll have to put a new wire from the battery to the rear, and have it relayed na lang. lagay ka fuse nearest to the positive terminal battery, in case of a short.

    I have stroble lights inside my reverse lamps.

    You just need longer wires. The wires pass through the interior for weather protection. The only time they go outside the vehicle is thorugh the grommet on the firewall.

    Generic Taiwan lang po. Php 350.00 sa ACE hardware. Kaso I still have some splicing and soldering to do. The kit is not wide enough for my rig so I have to extend some wires.

    yun din ikakabit ko yung sa ace na cheap, baka blue strobes sa harap and red strobes sa likod.

    so wala talaga lusot, i really need to wire it up from the dash to the lights. ok, at least i'll be busy for 2 days hehehe! work 10 minutes, rest 1 hour, work 10 minutes, rest 1 hour hehehehe!

    meron yata ako nakita sa SM workshop na strobe lights na maliit lang di tulad nung ibang may casing pa. para cyang yung bulb lang na nakasabit sa wired and yung main box nya is nasa labas. it looks like blasting caps ng dynamite. Mas gusto ko to ksi i thik its easier to install ilalagay mo lang sa loob ng headlight / tail light yung bulb and nasa labas yung main blinker module nya.

    You do not need to drill holes. Just pass the wires where thru the hole where the bulb passes through. The wires are thin enough so that you can re-install the bulb socket without fuss.

    I'm just using white for now. Yun kasi ang most visible.

    Alala ko lang po noong na flat ako sa Canaba Viaduct, hindi pa ginagawa yung NLEX so wala pa yung assistance na matatawagan at nasa kalagitnaan na ko ng bridge at gabi pa nun. YUng flat-tire panaman nasa rear driver side, so everytime na may dadaan na truck para akong hinihigop...inabot lng yata ako ng 10mins. maximum na cguro yung 20mins sa pagpalit ng flat-tire, dahil sa sobrang kaba..ehehhehe

    Oks.. for emergency warning purposes lng, while at stop.

    sabay ko cguro sa switch ng hazard or individual switch para hindi pagtripan ng police..

    Thanks for the reply Sir Yebo
