Update as of 11/23/15

When I first got the Argent (thanks to Emergency Lights) it was only populated in the front with two amber modules in the rear. I took it apart and went to town on it. I took out the old whelen linear strobes I originally had before and replaced them with Vista lower snap-in strobes. The mounting feet were originally white so I painted them black along with the domes so no one would bitch about the color. I already had a DPS trooper try to tell me I couldn't have my lights and later said I could keep them since they don't show what color I have. As of now the front consists of 8 Solaris LEDs in the front along with the two strobes and takedowns and 2 Solaris LEDs in the rear along with 6 Sho-me 11.2500 LED lights. I'm not really liking them that much being that they aren't as bright as I'd like but I have 2 amber Solaris modules sitting around that will go back in once I get my hands on some more red ones (found 9 on eBay so once I get paid I'll try to snag them) and they'll get hooked back up to my signalmaster. I'm also debating on setting the talon back to steady burn.

Set up is pretty much the same with an addition of Whelen TIR3s on the LP and all 6 of the Strobes N More Mini E6s including the 700s and T-6s are controlled by a Whelen UFM8 Flasher. Eventually I may end up changing all of my lights to Feniex.

I really dig this setup. The Argent looks great up there and will look even better with the rear populated with solaris heads. I like the white strobes up front as well.

How did you mount the lights in the rear headliner?
For both the 8 head and Cuda signalmaster I attached L brackets on each end and used self-tapping screws. If you pull the headliner down just a little you'll find a lip and that's where I screwed the lights onto.
