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
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

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

Transgenic tomato anyone?

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.
