Default Strobe Light Install

Strobe light install
Items needed


2 Strobe lights $5.99 each at pet supplies plus or some pet stores. They go on the dog collar to watch the dog at night

Phillips screwdriver

Drill bits: 3/8, last 1/4, second, 9/16 first

Cordless drill or Dremal tool

Wood with a groove big enough to hold the headlight bucket

Hot glue gun (mine came from the dollar store)

Hobby knife or pocket knife

1) Unbolt the body and flip upside down
2) Remove the headlight bucket with a Phillips screwdriver (don't loose the headlight lens).
3) Set the headlight bucket in the grove facing up set aside the lens
4) Using the Dremal or drill start with smallest drill size above go slow and drill into the center of the bucket
5) Keep enlarging hole with next size bit until you get to the 3/8 bit
6) Remove the clasp and ring from the strobe
7) using a hobby knife or pocket knife trim the hole so strobe light pushes through tight don’t make the hole to big
Once the strobe is in place firmly reassemble the lens into the headlight bucket.
9) Now reinstall the headlight bucket assembly back into the Jeep
10) Push the strobe into lens till flush, turn on the strobe with a twist in the back
11) If all went well dab a little bit of hot glue out side the bucket where the strobe passes thru


You’re done

Now this is a finger light I found at the dollar store small enough to do the same thing to the headlight bucket, well any other ideas?
