HLF


LAWs in taillights and backup lights


Whelen M7 in each section of grille, all red (4 total)


SOS Intersectors on mirrors


Whelen M4 on mirrors


10-75 LP bracket on front with TIR3


Avenger in R/R above RVM


SOS Ultralite 12 in back window, all amber


Ditch the Whelen siren and get dual Unitrol Omega 90s with 400 watts. :D

52 Aerodynic with only one center rotator and all the rest mirrors. Center rotator will be two sealed beam incandescents.


HAW incandescents (not halogens, not strobes or LEDs)


Incandescent grill flashers.


Incandescent dash light.


...anything else incandescent you can find.

Code 3 MX7000 or Excalibur, all-lights, with intersection lights, alley lights, Oscilaser (or whatever it's called these days -- I still think of it as a "Stinger"), ArrowStik, and mixed fast/slow rotators.


Concur on the dual Unitrol Omega 90s.

Funny you should bring up a chrome grille, and all that stuff. I am actually thing about getting a chrome brushguard, simillar to what you had, Ken; only with wraparounds so I can utilize my federal model 67 w/ propello ray

I would put:


HLF


Front and rear corner strobes


Whelen Freedom (With slow flash pattern)


700's grill lights or M7's which ever (not a split pattern)


Whelen Cencom


a pair of linz6's on the bumper or top of tailgate in amber


and thats about it. That would be a sick setup if done right


best of luck to you

I totally missed the empty fog housings! More incandescents, Tony, more incandescents! We like it! We love it! Make it flash, Tony D, make it flash! Hooah!


Actually, I'm thinking of tossing the incandescents. Yup, for something this new, we REALLY need the ORIGINAL look of portable lighting. Since you're going to get the brush guard, you can do the most ultimate look of all:


LANTERN!!!!!!

That and a pair of PAR36 halogen flashers in the grille would be just great. :D

AHAHAHAHA!!! Then you have just volunteered yourself for assisting with the install!

If you go slicktop, the install would be sooooo much easier. On a more serious note, you could slap some 6LED pimp pods behind the grille (solid red, no split color or pattern for better effect from a distance), do a 10-75 intersection bracket on the front license plate with a 3, 4 or 6LED pimp pod on the side, a HLF on a simple 1.9 fps wig-wag pattern and rock what you've already got on the truck. With gas mileage nowadays and the wind noise from a vector on a truck (drove a 2000 Dodge Ram with one on top for the USAF), it'll be a PITA.


...and for all of that I suggested minus the HLF, I know who you could get it from locally. :p


As far as helping with the install, I could come down perhaps one day to meet up with firemedic and help a bit. That's a ways off, so depends on if I have anything going on, which is too difficult to plan for now.
