and for the rear I will drill because you cant see inside those enclosures beause of the refractors and its clouded, meaning drill hoels wont be visible

. Just kidding. I guess laying them there would work. Might they break whne hitting bumps and bouncing around? I don't know.

I used to have Pilot Strobe lights, they had a 1/2'' hole to be drilled. i did it, and almost cracked one of my headlamp fixtures. cause i kinda rushed doing it. its not a bad idea, u can always place a small piece of electrical tape over it if u wanna take em back out!.
but yea, if u do it, take ur time. and make the wires hidden, not lying on top of ur battery and engine compartments. (like mine were)

PEACE

I had strobe lights before one burned out. I didnt take them out I just left the lights in bcuz I didnt want to put anything over the holes. If I was to do it all over, I would get some of those strobes that they have on Fire trucks.
Anyways its your car drill if you want. You're the only that will have to like it.
