That's quite the budget, must be nice. I will comment that Star and D&R equipment is certainly not off brand. They aren't as mainstream as Whelen and Fed Sig but far from off brand. I actually really like D&R's sirens and the Prowler lightbar is extremely bright, brighter than a Liberty IMO

they put a d&r remote siren....and star lightheads.....the only prob is they put them on the push bar and with 84 miles on it....lights on at a accadent ...fire chief backed into it and pushed the deezee push bar into the grill and hood.....4500 dammage....a small  scratch on the tahoe,,,,,.police chief said he wants the cars to be seen and to not "use those crap lights"...lol

Looks to be a terminal strip.

LOVE the sounds of this set up. I love the CN signalmasters. White flood override to the front?

First - awesome install. Gotta love seeing the professional wiring and all the little extra things you do.


Off topic - the car says police, but is using a 5 point star. Is that common?

No wonder they could afford an unfit like that!...a place named "country club hills" has gotta have money!


Do you have a vid for us? Equipment choice and graphics package all look great. Although it looks a tad awkward to me (I guess b/c I'm used to seeing lights either mounted on the lower crossbar of the PB or a pair of lightheads recessed within the upper crossbar of the PB), I like how the forward-facing latitude is positioned at a height more noticeable than lights mounted in the lower grill area
