Looks really good! I love the sync in the front.


A few changes I'd make -


- Change the position of the grill lights so the top two are in the corners and the bottom ones about where they are now


- Change the rear lightbar configuration from B/B/B/B/B/B/B to B/A/B/A/B/A/B so it flashes amber against blue

I agree, I recommended having 1 of the heads on the bar red, and 1 amber to break it up but the Chief insisted on all blue


As far as the grill, I was originally going to do that but it came down to ease of mounting them. When I get the office I will post a pic of the inside of the grill.

How did u find the programming of the siren. We did a couple do them and found the programming to be a pain.

Programming took a little to get use to, however once I figured it out it wasn't to bad.


One thing I still haven't figured out and not sure if its possible, we had each function assigned to a single switch and then programmed the pursuit switch to turn on certain functions depending on the position which works great, however when you use the pursuit switch the indicator light for each individual switch does not light up.

Upon looking at the install PDF for the 295SDA1, I noticed it talked about remote "output" activation only, whereas if you look at the PDF for the PCCS9RW, it has sections on programming both remote "output" and remote "switch" activation. I would venture to say, that is the difference of the switch lighting up vs. staying off. I'm a little surprised that one product would have that feature and another wouldn't.

I love the sync with the front lights, the side looks nice, rear looks great, I just do not like that interior bar pattern. IMO, a left-side, right-side pattern would be highly effective.

Nice looking truck. I agree with some of the above comments, but it could be worse.

I'm not a fan of the Knight Rider pattern in the front, but really like the set up overall. That rear window set up is very cool!

I love it!!! The only thing I dislike is the knight rider scan pattern on the SV up front (I feel like going up to the chief & saying "why flash all the blue modules at once when you can flash 1 by itself?")


I would've preferred a pair of double stack MS6 in the grill for a larger lighthead footprint, but it's no biggie

Any chance you have dent up close pics of the mirror lights? They look small but I wanted to see how they look mounted.

Thanks

I will check. If not I can get some when he comes in next week to have his command box installed
