IMG_3162.JPG So my latest "project" is as above.
Getting Apollo F6 A/W on front corners, T3's on the grille, a Whelen DoT kit on the upper corners, and a pair of Lifetime REC's to light up the rear.

Halfway there today, updates to follow

What about a minibar or 1-2 beacons up top?
For snow/utility work, I think the best way to go is with 360 warning up top. I think 2 beacons would give you max visibility b/c you can spread them out a few feet apart, instead of having a single minibar centered. L31’s & Rotabeams are great but pricey, but SNM has decent beacons, like the SNM elite with rotator patterns, too

I agree on the SnM beacons, I've yet to buy one to demo but they do look nice in Louis's vids. And I agree on the dual high mount beacons as the best bang for the buck, but with that said, when the snow removal vehicle is used by a smaller company doing residential's u need "bombproof" lighting up top. You can barely keep ventvisors and mirrors on never mind top mounted lights. The snow lowers all the branches.
For this particular install, the factory switches were set at front,rear, the work lights on four. Unfortunately the Rec6 lights are slim pickings right now and delayed in shipping from Lifetime. I have a few short clips but can't easily post them from my cell. The T3's are synched, the F6 are not, the 700's on actionflash.
