No thanks, I got my Whelen L32 that I'm using... I tried to put a minibar on the Durango for use for now, but that didnt work out...
First I tried to convert my Amber CON-3 responder to a Blue TIR-6s Responder, but that didn't work... The heatsink on the TIR-6s doesn't allow for the mounts to be secured...
Second I tried putting my 22" Mini Liberty on the roof, but the ridges on the roof don't allow for the mags to sir on the roof flush...
So I put my L32 on the driver's side of the Sunroof and put my LED DashKing on the dash... I'd like to find a Dual Talon/Avenger for it, but I'll just use what I have... lol

Well I put a mini bar on the Durango for now until I can start buying my new stuff...
I took the LED Responder I had and made it 5/6 blue... lol I only had 2 blue heads laying around, so the rear is Blue/Amber... lol
Plus I put my LED DashKing in the windshield just for that little extra...

A LEGIT UPDATE!!! LoL
Today I put in solid work on the Durango... Nothing is wired up, but its all mounted and wires are run up to the top of passengers side fender.
Here's what I got done today:
- Mounting surface for the upper grill lights made and painted.
- Mounting surface for the lower grill lights made and painted.
- Upper grill lights (Feniex T-6s) mounted and wires run to the top of fender.
- Lower grill lights (Feniex T-6s) mounted and wires run to the top of fender.
- Whelen connected to the headlights and wires/flasher run to top of fender.
- New halogen high beams installed.
- Custom Feniex Titan T-300s Mounted and wired run to top of fender.
And here are some pics... No vids of the lights, other than a quick vid of the HLF. I'm still trying to decide where to mount my ULF-44 that will run my grill lights and mirror lights.

There are also titans in that mix I do beleive, I think it looks good so far. I wanna see it lit up though lol

Four large foot print lights in the grill is terrible? Must not be from around these parts. That's pretty much what everyone always ask for.
The work light sticks look like they fit perfectly for the application and it still keeps everything hidden.
I'm hazarding a guess lafd55 didn't realize some of those are titan lightheads...

Nice work.
The lights appear to be placed well to allow maximum light to pass thru the grill while maintaining a low profile.
Looking forward to the finished product.

No its not a practical joke... There are 10 lights in the grill, but in essence, there are acting as 6... There are 8 Feniex T-6s, but they are actin as 4 lights. And the Titans are not warning lights, just a scene/take-down lights... Maybe I'll get some time in the next couple of days and make a quick demo vid on how they will be set-up...
Indeed, I couldn't use my T-1000 in the grill without doing MAJOR fab work on the grill shell itself, so I'm putting that on the back burner for now...
Hopefully I can rig it up for a demo vid in the next couple of days...
Indeed... The outer edge of each T-300 is just about touching the grill, but I got everything to fit nicely... I'm happy with the progress so far...
Probably, but in his defense, just looking at that grill (and knowing how some of the install here are) one might think that all of those lightheads are unsynced and on a split pattern... lol But they are all set to steady and I'll be running them off an external flasher...I'm hazarding a guess lafd55 didn't realize some of those are titan lightheads...
Thanks man... Most of the morning was spend test fitting with tape and wire hanging everything... lol It looks like I may have to adjust the upper T-6s... The ones on the passenger side look lower in the pic, but it might be an optical illusion from the camera...
Your install is bad, and you should feel bad.
Just kidding. Looks awesome so far. External flashers or built in Feniex ones?

You people have issues. If he does a nice slow pattern it should look killer. A pattern like this will nice.

Maybe its just me, (takes into account this is a site where people REALLY like lights) but the diagram wish list looks a bit Overkill for a POV. :undecided: IMHO....Updated Build Post!!!
Even though the actual build is a little ways off yet, I figured I'd start a new thread and post what my plans are (at the moment anyway)
So, here's the new ride... A 2011 Dodge Durango Citadel, AWD, HEMI, and LOADED to the gills with features (I'm fairly certain its got every feature... lol)
Here are my plans as of right now (these may or may not change)

Durango Side Warning Alternate 3.jpg
Its a REALLY nice looking SUV for the record..

Gonna run a ULF-44 for the front lights (Grill and Mirror). The rest will use their internal flashers, and the T/A will run off the 4200...
Again, I think you are looking at all the lightheads individually, and not as a whole...
Yeah, that looks like Comet Flash... I'm going to use my personal favorite Flash pattern, Action Flash...
Indeed, that's the plan... Along with the Mirror lights. Still undecided if I will at a 4th level of the "X" though...
I know, but this is all the stuff that I already had for the build... Sadly the funds from selling my current stock of lights have been needed elsewhere and I haven't been able to buy anything for the build yet... Hopefully I can get at least the 4200 and the Pegasus soon...
"Overkill is in the eye of the beholder..." Thats the saying, right...? lol Like stated earlier, that's is just a "wish list set-up" It's most likely going to change a few times before final rendition... lolMaybe its just me, (takes into account this is a site where people REALLY like lights) but the diagram wish list looks a bit Overkill for a POV. :undecided: IMHO....

For everyone who has been saying "the grill is too busy/there are too many lights" ect... Here is a little diagram to explain it a little better... Maybe I'll be able to rig them up and display what they will look like...
Like I've stated before, the "8" grill lights are acting as "4"... 1 & 3 will flash opposite of 2 & 4 for an "X" pattern... And when I add the Mirror Lights, the passengers side will flash with 1/3 and the drivers side will flash with 2/4, giving me a larger "X"...
Hope this helps with the explanation... I'm not some "newb" that would install 8 grill lights and ave them all unsynced and split... lol And for you who still think that this is "too much", you have obviously have never seen my Avalanche... lol

You should have totally done a split fail pin wheel video for all those who dont know you, just to make them squirm. Lol.

I still don't understand why you just didn't throw 4 M7s back there instead of all that double-stacked mess.

He wanted an all Feniex build, as he stated earlier in the thread.
It looks good Boulder. Can't wait to see the finished setup!

Yeah, same set-up as my Avalanche... Remember, you don't have mirror lights... lol
Indeed... But I understand that most people don't bother to read install threads, just look at the pictures/vids...
Besides, M7s are $140/each, totalling $560 before shipping ... I'm into these 8 T-6s for $80 total with shipping...
Thanks man... I can't wait just to get some stuff hooked up... lol I'm back to rocking an L32 and a Dual Talon at the moment...

I had 8 defective T-4s... Sent them back for warranty work and they offered to upgrade them to T-6s for $10 each... lol
I may not have mirror lights but I'm pretty sure I was the first on here to have 3 lights in a giant X pattern. If I ever get those MirrorBeams done, I'll be the first to have 4 in a giant X. I know, times a wastin'... go ahead and bust my balls.
