WHELEN strobe kit group buy

Dunno if anyone here would be interested, but my car club is organizing this group buy and we are looking to get more people involved, so I figured I'd offer it here. It will run here until March 1, 2006. Payment will be due within 5 business days of the group buy's closing (by 5pm EST on 3/7/06).


These are the Best strobe kits in the industry, they're the same ones used by law enforcement.

Normal Price is around $300.00. If we get a Buy in at 10 or more we can get it for $170.00 Per Kit. Shipping will be $15 per kit. Final cost is $185 shipped to you.

Includes:
1~90W transformer with 6 outlets
4~White 90W Strobes
1~Transponder with 10 Pre-programmed flash patterns
All the wires for installation.

View here:

hey guys just remindin everyone to be careful if you buy these strobs...red or blues can get u impersonation of a law enforcement officer... so if u get questionable colors, make sure you use them off road only.

It says you to put in your head/tail lights you need to drill a 1in hole. What would be the best way to seal the head/tail lights back up so that they dont fog up?

they should seal because the bulbs have a rubber grommet, but you can always run a bead of RTV silicon around the bottom of those grommets, as i plan to do

how many people from your original group are in on these GSoccer24..??

a little fyi...
The use of these on the road (driving or while the vehicle is in motion) will get you a heavy fine, I have first hand experience (impersonating an officer/official vehicle, improper modification, disturbing the piece=$800+1 day in jail - 4th of july weekend in Daytona)
Although, at a car show, they are not shunned on by police for some odd reason....

added - I had the wig-wam in my front lights, which is what official police vehicles in florida have at times.

they're becoming popular with show vehicles. there are some shows popping up that happen at night and are called "glow-offs" or something. you've never seen a car with strobes at a car show??

my club currently has at least 4 orders paid for, there's a couple more in the works but we do have a solid 4 sets that i've taken payment for already. that's why i'm only letting it run for two weeks. i usually do group buys for up to a month.

the reason i posted here was because my club started this group buy on July 6, 2005 and everyone sat on it, except for those 4 orders. i knew some of you guys would be interested so we could get the minimum 10 people and get these ordered and installed for HIN Boston 2006 in late April.
