I like how he has that "strip-lite" mounted though... LoL

I've been thinking of buying a billet grill for my impala and doing the same thing with ELS lights.

Hmmmm, we may need to do an intervention there 818, save them from themselves (if the front plate is correct)!

I suppose the rumblers could be hidden, but the high frequency horns sound better when they are mounted outside the vehicle.

You don't do interventions with District 35. They are kind of like a mobile home fire, you let it go, and try to contain it to keep it from spreading.

I can't believe that they would do that after so carefully and kind of stealthy hidden the strip light in the grill. There is plenty of room for speakers and the Rumber woofers/speakers to go behind the grill too. As far as them facing the way they are, I think I've seen them mounted with one forward and one sideways in Chargers. Guessing that is for forward punch and intersection coverage on the Rumblers. Either way, that looks bad...can't say I like the way the speakers or LIN3s are mounted on the front bumper either. It would be different if there was a PB up front.

This belongs in the "Screwed Up Install" thread. I can only hope another truck backs into him in a parking lot.

Those brackets will break soon. Mounting the brackets at a 3 or 9 o'clock positions creates a cantilever effect and snaps them. The speakers aren't light.

Stupid install job, gaudy as hell, and it ruins the looks of the entire front end....wait a minute, that's a Ford, so the front end's looks are already ruined. :)
