VERY nice!

And my very own! This uses Whelen 700 series and Tomar RECT34 LEDs. They are all independent. I'm debating on whether to add a flasher or not in the future. As of now, the bar is only half done as I have only completed the front. The rear still has the original strobes. Complete with a Barker's beauty! Video to follow soon!

thanks mx7000 i appreciate the compliments. what colors would you require? lol

Will a meteor fit in a jet?

Absolutely, it was a factory center option in the jet series. It's the icing on your custom bar cake!

I know its not really a custom bar since its made by a company but i always loved the SHO-ME led/strobe mini bar i just think it looks cool and i want one just that they usually cost an arm and a leg and not really worth it since they are outdated since they use first gen leds. But i still think they look sweet.

I just finished a "custom" MX7000 that will soon be mounted on my SAR team's one truck. I used the components of two bars (and a random OsciLaser that I had laying around) to make one amazing one. I'm thinking about upgrading it later once I get more parts (like high speed rotators), but for now it's the best I could do. Pretty much it has red outer lenses and a clear inner. There's a rotator on the outer spots and one in the middle with a red filter. The inner rotators were replaced with OsciLasers. The lower section has an alley and intersection sweeps on each end and starting from the left is a red flasher, a strobe jerry-rigged into a flasher housing hooked up to a Priority Green Pre-Emption power supply, two white flashers in the middle, a steady burn red, and another red flasher. The four flashers are hooked up so the left outer & right inner alternate with the right outer & left inner. As you can tell, there's nothing to the back really (besides the rotators), but that's because it will be blocked by the body. I'm hoping to have a video soon, but until then, I'll give you two build pics...





I stopped taking pictures after there because I got pissed that the flashers weren't working (turned out to be a bad flasher, that's what I get for believing the team member who said "they told me everything worked when I got it from them"), and after I got that issue resolved I just wanted it done.

An absolute must for the Jet series!

Custom lightbar made from a Code 3 2100 base.

I was looking to somehow add clearance lights and additional work lighting to my truck with some warning capabilities. As it turned out, the more I tinkered and built, the more warning lighting it ended up with. The original had takedowns, angled alleys and rear halogen spot lights.

Original:




It turned out that the takedowns and rear spots weren't effective/used enough for me to keep around and I didn't like the angle on the alley lights so I decided to add additional warning lights. There are no pictures of it but revision 2 was the addition of another Sho Me flasher to unsync the rear amber and red lights (evident in the video).

1st Revision:








Clearance light function (tied into park lights) with cruise lights activated.



Video:



The bar ended up with:
Code 3 base/domes
Federal Signal wire harness
Code 3 LED-X Heads
911ep Stars
Sound Off Predators
Whelen 0S lights/LED Clearance lights
Whelen ULF 44 flashers
Sho Me 11.1005SF LED flashers

veryyyy nice

Thats actually really good. I like the clearance light idea.

Same here. I'm building a Jet and I think I'm going to incorporate that design.

Okay, after weeks of work here it is, My custom made Sho-me mini led lightbar.

Has Knockoff Tir 4s in the front.

And some sort of knock off lights that where give to me in the sides and rear, I'll get some video of it up maybe tomorrow night.

Yeah and the tape will be taken off the one light in the front, forgot to remove it before the dome was screwed down, he had it on the inside and was taped off in an effort to reduce flashback.

seeing this bar - in the second pic - has anyone ever done a mini "roto-ray" in a bar?

Where do you see an idea for a mini roto ray from the jetstream led ? My interest is perked...

seeing the 4 head led - thought it would be cool to see it spin - maybe a 3 red - 1 white for example - or that might get toooooo crazy

Here's a Jet that I am building. I've had the modules but couldn't decide on a good frame until I saw the Jet projects earlier in this thread. It's my own version of the Jet Solaris haha. All the heads are blue except for 4 amber to the rear. You can see how I was going to mount the end modules but I couldn't get them lined up, so I'm going to mount them to a flat "L" plate/bracket and then mount the whole assembly to the aluminum tube. I still need to wire the bar; I think I'm going to put a ULF44 in it. Everything will be grounded to the frame to simplify the process. I'm at a standstill until every opens back up from the New Years' holiday.

What kind of modules are they? Looks nice, takedowns or alleys? A ULF44 would go nice with that bar, I always liked their flash patterns.
