Here's what I did:


Moved the 5MM leds in the lightbar to the rear, added 4 Linear heads to the front and 2 to the rear.


Added 2 M7s to the grille.


Added Headlight flasher.


Added Whelen switchbox with a slider switch, which replaced a crappy old pushbutton style one.


Everything else was already installed by Team Electronics in Minot, ND, which did an overall poor job on the vehicle.

Looks really good. Love the M7's. I have 14 of them on my POV. They are really bright. Its about time ppl use the new M7's and not the Super 700series.

Wow, so pretty much all you had on there before was the light bar and the arrow stick? And is that an old Kustom on the dash? I wonder why the dept would spend so much on such a large vehicle but only put on lights that can't be seen by most vehicles (IDT most cars would be able to see the light bar if the truck was behind them).

Yeah before I worked on it, it had 1 red and 1 blue 5mm leds facing forward plus the TDs and corner strobes. That's all. :roll:


Main reason for the Expedition is the state bid pricing and that fact that in rural ND 4x4 for winter is a MUST.


Honestly in rural ND, unless the highway patrol has it (or Galls), these people don't really know what kind of products are out there or care. After I told the Chief that it's kind of a liability to not have enough lighting, he was more than willing to deck it out.


Yes that is a old Kustom. He just uses that because it was sitting around in the city shop (Doesn't write tickets with it). I guess they are getting a stalker radar through the safe and sober program sometime in the near future.

i hope that counting unit is held on with something more than sun-melted velcro?! a good fender bender and that thing will probly take your head off. the upgrades look good, overall looks like a nice unit.

Looks good, I am from ND myself. Fargo. I absolutely hate the work Team Electronic does... I knew a few people that worked at the one here in Fargo way back. Not my choice, especially for emergency equipment.

Yeah that was a temp job for a few days until the new radar was put in.


I just installed a new Watch Guard digital video camera system as well as a Decatur Genesis II radar.
