LED flashers

I've tried doing a search for LED strobes, but cannot find the pics that were put up as to where folk fitted them. not something I really need on the D3 but looking to get them on the van....and D3 Whistle

I take it the easiest place is on the front grille with the right angled brackets?

What is the best way to get them switched. A dedicated box to control them, or set-up to a simple switch?

Any tips, pics or experience of fitting appreciated Thumbs Up

Perhaps you could get a scalpel and have limo tint with two flasher sized holes in? Whistle Dr. Ian Malcolm:

The other place you can fit them is surface mount on the plastic panel on the lower tailgate, involves drilling holes in it but it's a cheap enough part to replace.

My front ones go in the slot above the number plate rather than in the grille, they fit very easy in there.

You can get one of these, or more, as you can link these up and power via the sockets
