Is that a factory housing for the V-series in the side windows?

I think I wet myself...

Seriously, nice install!

Not a huge fan of the nForce duals in the side windows WITH the Ion Vs, but "the customer gets...."

Love the T3s in the headlights, very neat idea. The nForce on the tags looked angled a bit, I had the same issues in my grille. Amazing lights though!

Did you guys make the housing around the Ion Vs in the side windows? Fantastic idea!

I sure hope you hooked up the "low power" option for nighttime!

Nice job, as usual!

The V-Series and mirror ION's were ordered as an option from Ford by the department. The V-Seris came with the housings.

Thanks!

Unfortunately, we weren't told that any lights were ordered with the SUV from Ford. Our quote had already been approved when the SUV arrived, so we worked around what had been installed.

Did this dept wanna set a record for how many different manufacturers' equipment they could use on one vehicle lol?  I really like the V-series factory option.

Very nice work.  I could've gone without the nforce in the rear side windows at an angle (maybe horizontal at top of window instead since you already had them) and gone completely linear for the PB (nforce mounted on the sides of the PB instead of the ghosts, had an Apollo lightstick instead of cobra), but I understand that you do whatever the person with the checkbook wants.  Were the HLF, mirror beams, & side v series the only things the customer had from ford?

So. Much. Blue. Ugh.... I take it all blue is an Ohio thing?

New Chief wants away from R/B, so this was the first build in all Blue

We try to be equal opportunity as far as manufacturers go :)

The only items supplied with the vehicle were: Ions on mirrors & V-Series. HLF was a Whelen UFH2150a.

If you do not see this thing coming or that you are approaching...... you need your license taken away. Interesting how the different companies with colors. The rear outer edge has the whelen lighter blue look to it compared to the nforce deep blue

Those t3's are insane!!!

This car looks perfect. Great blue setup and sync to the front and rear. The pushbar lights look great, one of the only times I've actually appreciated that kind of lightbar. The sync to the rear is also well done.

I never understood mounting lights at a 45 degree angle on the C-pillar when the optics are designed for either a horizontal or vertical spread, was this a dept request or just something you guys like visually?

I know, it was originally supposed to be mounted at the top of the window, horizontally.

However, the area there wasn't conducive to this particular light. Since the Whelen V-Series light had already been mounted by Ford at the bottom of the window, this was the next spot..

Placement (except angled rear window) and pattern (many slower and alternating) is one of the better I´ve seen in a while, but you could remove some redundant lights and still be covered well. Does the system have nighttime-dimming? Blinded drivers are a serious threat.

Being European I like all blue. Traffic is so saturated with reds, so there is never any question when we see flashing blues:) Simple/uncomplicated imo.
