Installing LED strobes in headlight access?

Hello everyone. There seems to be an access port of some sort in the top of each of my headlights. Does anyone know what this port is for?

What you are looking at I believe is the adjuster for the head light assembly. Look in your manual for adjusting the headlights. It is not a port for installing head light strobe tubes.

I'm running wigwags, but don't have any hide-away lights (not worth the money, dedicated lightheads work better).

Have installed plenty. What are you looking to do?

I run wig wags, also, but I know a lot of people who have done strobe tubes and LED flashers in the headlights. You just need to find a spot where there is enough clearance for the bulb inside the light and the wire/connector outside.
