**johnwadeg** · February 19th, 2012, 07:56 PM

Recent install we did this past week on my dads new F-150.

2011 Ford F-150 used for POV response to local VFD and as a Demo Vehicle

Front-
Red D6 in grill
Red D4 underneath grill
R/W Vertex in Fogs
Whelen 100 watt siren

Back-
2 red Vertexs in each brake light
2 red Linz-6 on a license plate bracket

Interior-
Whelen Undercover hand held siren/light controller
Hytera DMR remote head mobile

This is one of our first "professional" install so still working the kinks and getting familiar with everything. Ill get a few more photos of everything uploaded in a day or so.

Hytera... Never heard about them. How are they?

Very solid to say the least, we started selling them last year. The DMR mobiles and portables are VERY well built, they are waterproof, shockproof, they can just take a lot of abuse (our VFD has been using them and they have took a good amount of punishment). The remote heads just got shipped out this past week and have been on order for a few months now so we were excited when we got them in.

Cool, Do you guys have a website?

**firefightin6** · February 20th, 2012, 03:51 PM

No website yet. we do more radio installs (Dean's Commercial Two-Way) then we do outfitting lights. We are just testing the water with installing.

**VolEms** · February 20th, 2012, 05:23 PM

Nice a Headlight Flasher would add a lot to the install.

**MPD 818** · February 20th, 2012, 05:37 PM

Looks good, my only suggestion would be to put some wire loom on your siren wires and what not. Good job!

**Storm4200** · February 20th, 2012, 05:47 PM

Very nice! My only complaint is the LINz6s on the rear. They need to be mounted horizontally. You'll get much better off axis light output

We didn't have a horizontal LP bracket so had to make do with what we did have, maybe have to see about getting a horizontal bracket instead.

**hawkspringsfire** · February 20th, 2012, 06:35 PM

I think it would look better if you synced both the dominators. IMO.

**arsenal10** · February 20th, 2012, 07:22 PM

Planning on adding anything a little higher? Most of the lighting is down low and out of eye level. Also, I'd have the dominators on a different plash pattern.

**upnorth896** · February 20th, 2012, 07:32 PM

Like it... Simple yet affective.

**Bonanno** · February 20th, 2012, 09:41 PM

Like it, I'd add a HLF, something in rear window, and some intersection coverage.

**Storm4200** · February 20th, 2012, 10:18 PM

leave the lower D4 on that night rider pattern, but split flash the top stick

if its the WHELEN bracket that i have, it well let you do either position

**johnwadeg** · February 21st, 2012, 12:29 PM

In response to changing the dominators to a different pattern, they've been changed already I was just a fan of those patterns. We don't plan on adding anything higher right now but in the future we might get around to it. We hopefully will be outfitting my Tahoe here in the future replacing all the stuff with Whelen.

**novaowner65** · February 24th, 2012, 11:57 PM

Can you post a pic of how you mounted the light stick behind the grill? I have the same grill and I am thinking of doing the same on my truck.

If by Coke can you mean fog lights, then yes they flash red and white split as seen in the video. Ill snap a couple pictures asap and get them to you novaowner65.

**ISU_Cyclone** · February 25th, 2012, 04:17 PM

How did you mount the 4 head dominator? Any pics? Thanks
