Kingsford Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Finally got around to reinstalling some of my emergency lights in my truck... Took about 5 hours to do the ones in the grill and about 20 minutes to hard wire everything to a switch on the console. I plan on getting a lot more. Probably some LED Strobes in the fog lights and a light bar in the back window. I try to keep everything hidden. I know Mayben has been waiting for this. Let me know what you think. Someone care to help me with the embedded video? Can't seem to get it to work right. Heres the link until I figure this out...

Vink70 Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 I actually recently sold all my lights finally. It got to the point where I just dont need them to respond. Coming to the station from 3-4 miles out, some times a lot of traffic, sometimes not. I just couldnt justify someone seeing it and thinking they had to pull over. Not to mention most people on the department think that the public HAS to pull over. When in reality, they do not have to. Its a courtesy light. Not to mention people with blue lights tend to speed. Ill admit, I used to speed to the station to make calls, but found out on my own that its not worth it. No point making another victim by speeding there. Now that I am full time I still volunteer as well and just have become a lot more wise about it. The lights were cool at first but the novelty wore off on me and im glad it did. Yours looks good, I just hope you use them with respect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twb4525 Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 those L.E.D.s look sweet. i had strobes (2 front and 2 back) in my f350 plow truck. sold that truck and put the lights in my ranger. they are clear strobes, but mounting them behind amber lenses on front made them yellow. in the rear, i put them in the reverse lights and they are clear/white. i'll see if i can make a video legal where i am, just as long as they are not red or blue. i think LEDs are the lighting of the future. just my input.
