You can talk about NYC until you are blue in the face, but you will never convince me that 4 Dual Avengers, 1 Slimlighter, 5 M6's, 2 M4's, and 3 Sirens w/ Airhorns just to the front is any better than half of that stuff with 1 siren. Sorry I'm not sorry.

If you are getting hit by people, then drive better.

Lights above and beyond what is necessary won't turn "dumb drivers" into "smart drivers"

If there was a lightbar I would agree. On a unmarked slicktop u can't have to many lights. Stay safe and enjoy your new ride.

come to nyc i will set you up with a pov with the bare bones lights just how you like it and u will run a call here at 5 in the afternoon

I agree~~! Just because you have lights, doesn't give you ownership of the road....due care is always the responsibilty of the person running code, not the other drivers...

A little too much for my taste, but to each their own.

OP, what ambulance service are you with?

saw the truck in person today, slick slick install!! looks better in person than the video. i know 4 dual avengers sound crazy but the way its mounted, flush to the headliner, it looks like a custom interior lightbar with minimal flashback. so i would say interior lightbar and not overload

Are they the sync avengers, they don't look like they are.

i like the install, but having 7 M series in the grill and 3 sirens is overkill, IMHO. Without changing the list of equipment installed, i would at least change the flash patterns on the grill lights so that the 2 red modules on the left side of the grill alternate with the 2 modules on the right side of the grill

Looks good, Jeep GC arent the most install friendly vehicles. Got any interior shots of the install? Always looking for idea's. Thanks for sharing.

A Powercall is also a must have, also requiring more speakers. A pushbumper would accomodate those well. Then you would have 5 simultaneous tones.

At this point you will have succeeded in being louder than a whole station full of emergency vehicles since you will be pushing 800 watts from one vehicle. You will own the road.

I almost spit Coke on my keyboard when reading this.

what model dash cam is that do you have a link?

The grille seems like a bit much, do you have any airflow to your engine. I think a couple of bright whelen m7's or 4 LINZ6's would be plenty. I don't have the NYC experience but like someone else said, several lights don't make other drivers smarter. I like the back though. HAWs look awesome with the license plate lights.

Bad ass man, your Jeep is nice and the lights look good too.

Have any pictures or can you get some of the grille install? I am trying to figure out how to install lights in the grille. Doesnt look like a lot of options. I should be picking up a '12 JGC this week/weekend.

pov's who work in ems can run l&s in NY? Thought they were restricted to green courtesy lights...?

That rear dominator is a huge split fail, it's starting to look purple 5 feet away. Too many colors per square foot. I do like the rear vertex and plate lights though.

Also this.

Requires agency approval plus Dept of Health inspection and must carry required equipment per Dept. of Health regs.

Also has to be staffed by appropriate level of training - EMT-B for BLS or AEMT-CC or Paramedic (depending on local system) for an ALS fly car.

Emergency Medical Services 800.26 for details

How are your grille lights and speakers mounted? Obviously a lot of space but not a lot of attachment points that I can see. I will have one speaker maybe two at most and 4 small grille lights (Fed Sig Impaxx). Thanks

Judging from the pictures he posted of an install his buddy just got, it appears to be Hatzoloh, Flatbush division. At least that's what the ambo in the bay says on it.

i like it a little to much but it looks good
