I’m looking to convert the takedowns on my mini centurion to alternating flashers. Does anyone have the amber lower filters? I would need 2.

Those incandescent lamp modules look strikingly similar to those that belong in the Edge Duplex, 96xx series if I recall correctly:

I wonder if the filters might be interchangeable.

I have a light bar with lower filters. I'm pretty sure they're similar to the duplex edge bars, except the pattern of the lens is more fluted on the centurion. I can take a look at my bar tomorrow.
 
They are not the same as a duplex edge, they only share the halogen assembly
Centurion parts are somewhat on the rare side, but there looks to be enough room that you can take a section of amber edge lens and cut it down to fit in as a filter instead of trying to find the whole assembly
I have new and used lens sections and can cut to size if you can give good measurements

Are they prehaps the same filters used on a DashKing?

I removed an arrow kit from a Centurion years ago. Pretty sure the filter/lens for the lower light is what holds the lighthead in place.

@Romano71 if you are not able to find amber filters and need them amber, you could try amber lens tape on the front of your current filters.

I always like to look for the factory parts first but yes, that's an option. Probably a risky one trying not to crack the lens as I cut it to size.
