I got these, quite cheap and really bright, but as ever, they will flicker when off for about 10 seconds.

Here are a few dodgy iPhone pics. They are brighter than they appear in the pics but may give you an idea.

You guys are aware that the strobing is intentional. All part of the Vectra's Security system.

There might come a time when you might want to do something 'dodgy' or not 100% legal, and if your number plate isn't lit up like a christmas tree then anyone in the near vicinity might not be able to read it properly
