Hi everyone. I've been on elightbars since 2013 but since I've been on/off since then I thought I'd introduce myself. I've enjoyed lightbars and emergency equipment as long as I can remember. I prefer the lightbars with rotators over all the new LED bars. I like how every depart seemed to have their own unique style lightbar that stood out. LAPD had the aerodynic with a lens combo that was unique to their cars. NYPD had the classic aerotwin bar with the clear/red/amber lens combo seen in hundreds if not thousands of movies. Cincinnati, Boston and Indianapolis all used Code 3 / Force 4 XL bars with lens combination unique to their own department. With all the LED bars, it's mainly a solid clear bar and very plain nowadays. Arguably bright... Not just not the same! I heard about some emergency vehicle shows in the Chicago area and Ferndale, Michigan area and hope to take my car their whenever I'm able to get it done.

Hello, may I ask what the car project is,? Welcome back. Lol
It is a 1997 Ford Crown Victoria, former Cincinnati car. I'm attaching a photo of my car and a photo of what it will look like when it's done.
