Swapping Pegasus modules

I have a Pegasus split universal bar on my old car, pointing rearward (purchased on this board!) The setup, which made sense at the time, is BRRABBARRB.
I just purchased a new car, and would like to use the Pegasus as a front facing bar, but I'd need to swap out the Blue and Amber for Red and White / TD. It seems that the Pegasus is no longer sold. Can Cobra or Apollo modules be (easily) swapped out? I'm looking to get rid of the 4 Blue and 2 Amber heads and swap 'em for red/white. Thanks for the info!

I have a Feniex Pegasus in my Explorer that I converted to a Cobra bar. It takes a little work. I took some L brackets and cut them to fit. When you take the bar apart you will see all the bolts that a attacked to the base. I planned out where the light heads would go using those bolts to hold the brackets. Take your time planning it out and get out the Dremel tool.

I will find the link to my truck. I believe there are pics in there. In this first video is three Cobra heads compared to two Pegasus heads.

I ran all my lights to a Whelen ULF44. I can each individual light head to the flasher (lots of extra work and wire) so I can change light heads around easily.

can you take pics of the bar itself, off? Do you need to run it off a ULF can you wire it right into the pegasus "brain?"

ah ok that post is very helpful, thanks. Do you know if you have to run it on a sep. flasher or can you use the pegasus flasher by splicing the heads into the existing wiring?

Your welcome

You could try using the existing flasher. You will use fewer Cobra heads then Pegasus heads. So when you connect them keep that in mind. Example my bar had 10 heads and now 8. So if I were to use stock flasher. I would eliminate one head on each end so it flashes properly
