2012 Chevy Cruze Lighting Suggestions

[42irons]

Hi I have a 2012 Chevy Cruze that I would like to install some lighting in. This is my POV so I would like to keep the lighting as hidden as possible.


I would like a dash light mounted to my headliner, behind the tint. Some LEDs behind the grille, and lights on the rear deck beside the third break light.


This is my car








Now the rearview mirror presents a problem in my opinion. The rear view mirror's mount to the windshield prevents me from using a traditional dual light, like a slimlighter. So instead I will need to syncable led lights.





The rear deck is pretty cut and dry and I think a Ghost LED or a Whelen ion would work well on each side of the brake light.








By the way the windows are tinted to 28%. What suggestions would you guys have for lights? I'm not sure what would be best for the windshield. But I would like a 911ep light behind the grille, If I can ever find one.

If you didn't want a dual led dash light, you could do two Mini TIR Traffic Enforcers (which sync together).


In the rear, you could do two RX42s (only $59.99 ea and can sync together).


I have two styles of grille lights, a T3 and T6.


Just a few suggestions

I would use Feniex products all around.


Front:


(2) Feniex Python T-4's in the grille ( you could have 2 python 200's set to steady burn synced with dashlights by led flasher)


Police lights, Emergency led lights, public work lights, Feniex industries, Warning vehicle lights and sirens, lightbars


or


Police lights, Emergency led lights, public work lights, Feniex industries, Warning vehicle lights and sirens, lightbars


(2) Feniex 2X dual dashlights set to steady burn ( 1 each side of mirror)


Police lights, Emergency led lights, public work lights, Feniex industries, Warning vehicle lights and sirens, lightbars


(1) Led flasher to x fire dual dashlights with grille lights


Sides:


(2) Feniex Python t-4's (one each side window forward headliner on l brackets)


Police lights, Emergency led lights, public work lights, Feniex industries, Warning vehicle lights and sirens, lightbars


Rear:


(2) 2 or 4 Feniex T-4's (2 on each side of third light synced to xfire with two mounted to outter headliner corners on l brackets)


Police lights, Emergency led lights, public work lights, Feniex industries, Warning vehicle lights and sirens, lightbars

Do you have any videos of the RX42? I searched youtube and your website and couldn't find any. This light may work well for behind my grille as well as rear deck. :undecided:

Two single avengers up front, or two dual if you want more light. A couple ions or ghosts in the grille, and a couple D2s in the back.

Honestly, I suggest the following:


Front:


Feniex Python 4X in b/b/b/b or w/b/b/b.


Feniex Python 100 in blue.


Back:


I'd find a dual color amber/blue interior bar able to do traffic patterns in amber and warning in blue.


(I have no clue what your state regulations are, but I'm guessing you are blue, like ND. I don't know if you respond to the station of to scene or if you're fire or ems, so im just throwing out suggestions. This is my setup^)

I would do two Whelen single Avengers or FedSig Vipers on either side of the RVM, two SOS ghosts or Whelen Ions in the grill, LAWs in the fog lights sync'd in an x-pattern with the grill lights. A ghost or ion on a 10-75 bracket. A StrobesNMore dual color E66 light stick in the rear with some clear LAWs in the reverse lights with a Whelen HHS2200 siren.

Seems a little excessive for what he is trying to go for. Plus, why would he put just white HAW's in the rear? He should put red or blue or whatever color he is allowed to run.

Yup I second that

I'm not sure how that's excessive, a little bit of window tint and it would all be hidden. Also, I feel that a small amount of white to the rear is effective warning. Red or blue HAWs are not effective during the day.

Congrats on the new car, those Cruze's are nice looking and great performing and give the imports a run for their money.

Front:


x2 single nForce Windshield lights


x2 Ghosts in grill


-all four lights will sync. You could add some Universal Undercovers to the headlight housings or to the lower bumper area where fog lights would be for some extra front coverage.


Side:


x2 LED3s on intersection bracket


-you didn't meantion it and CT isn't a siren state if I recally correctly, so you won't be busting intersections doing code, but some front end side coverage is sually helpful and effective in courtesy light states, especially if you are going to be on scene or blocking intersections at all.


Rear:


x2 Ghosts left and right of the brake light


-if you wanted more to the rear you could do Universal Undercovers in one of the rear tail light areas or LED3s (even Ghosts if you want a lot of light) synced with the Ghosts by the brake light in an x pattern. That really gets peoples attention, looks clean, and can be seen a good distance.
