Unless you are authorized to use your A4 as an emergency vehicle through a public safety agency it is illegal to have strobes installed in your side markers. Fine can be hefty.

Default I've seen this done on a Cavalier, looked silly

It was at an autocross and I went from disbelief to hysterical laughter.<p>Regards,

The law is very specific about what kind of light you can emit from your vehicle.
