Default Is this too fast?

I installed a flasher inside the head of the Utah spotlight Thanks Mike!

Thanks to you! I would have never thought to put the flasher in the head.

I am guessing that is how UHP ran them? Looks great to me too.

The blue looking stuff in the pics is that seam sealer, before you sprayed primer over it?

I'm not sure UHP used it that way I think it looks cool and being a slicktop I will assume it had a flashing spot.
The blue stuff is POR15 primer so that it can get topcoated. You can't paint directly over POR15, it won't stick. The Grey stuff is seam sealer.

I have some footage of a Utah slicktop car with the flashing spot. It may be on the new Real Stories DVDs that Danielle made, too.

It makes sense with no forward facing lights (other than wigwags maybe?).
