it is a nice install, but what is the point? It is a Crown Vic with a spot light. It doesn't matter how hard you try to hide the lights, EVERYONE knows its the POLICE.

Yeah, the spotlight is a bit of a giveaway. Otherwise it looks like a very stealthy install.

I like the ideal and the thing you could do.

My thoughts exactly. Whether it's a plain civilian crown vic or fully decked out, 95% of the motoring public sees a crown vic and thinks "cop" immediately.


...But, it is a pretty cool set-up....

But the spots are black, so you don't see them at night.


Hmmm, wait, aren't most cars pretty stealthy at night?

Looks like a "fun with smoked lexan" demo video. Clever idea....it is good to see some out of the box applications....I wish it would have been done to a little more current model vehicle. Very interesting..

Seems like a waste on this vehicle...but would definitely like to see it on a less obvious "I'm A Cop" vehicle. Maybe do it on a charger or malibu. I like the idea for undercover/SRT ops.

I like this comment on the video, so true. That is an unmarked police car, not undercover.


" Is a P71 with spotlights and steel rims really supposed to be "undercover"?"

It looks really cool. I wonder how effective the Police sign is on the mirrors. Whelen made a Police Talon I have never seen them being used by PD. It didnt seem to take off like the TA did when it came out.
