I think that sounds like a good setup! I look forward to following your progress.

Sounds good. However, think you should stick with solid red surface mounts b/c it sounds like a lot of clear to the front if you do all dual color (plus the HLF will drown a lot of stuff out). Also, while I generally love LAWs in turn signals, I don’t think those dodge headlights are ideal for them (I don’t think their shape traps/reflects the LAWs like, for example, Crown Vic or older Tahoe turn signals)

Yea I was thinking there was alot of Clear to the front. I was just looking at the turn signal housing how do you think A set of strobe hideaways would work in them.

I would skip HAWs and LAWs in the front turn signals all together. I don’t think the reflector would do a great job of “trapping” the LAW/HAW output, & I wouldn’t risk the headlights with the heat from the strobes when you have plenty of other warning

Here is a little update.

Thanks to pdk9 for the advise.

I ordered 4 Red Feniex Fusion 40 Degree for the grille. Also changed by mind about the hideaways in the turn signals.

The power distribution center idea failed. When I seen on a form of a cubby hole under the driver seat. The siren brain and the Fuse block will be mounted inside the cubby.

The rear fuse block will be mountes in the rear cubby compartment.

I got the SNM E46 installed.
