Light me up! BMW X5 School Liaison Car

[Sigma Safety]

Hi all,

We have a project to light up a BMW X5 (2009, I think).  It needs to have emergency vehicle (police) capability for the very rare traffic stop, but they also want it completely lit for parades, school show-offs, etc.

The officer I met with said they want it to 1) look like the Griswold's house and 2) be visible from space

They have a pretty good budget.  We also want 'bling' lights so we are going to put about 20-30 of the Tecniq EON colour-changing lights throught the vehicle (inside and out).

As far as the lights for legal use;

• Micropulse Ultra red/blue dual colours everywhere; 4-6 up front, 1 on each mirror, 2 on rear license plate, 2 under liftgate and a couple to each side, plus in some other places (20 in total)
• Micropulse 6 hood lip mount lights (1 red, 1 blue) on hood lip
• SmartSiren Platinum
• ES100C speaker
• 2 x Viper S2 Spectralux Red/Blue/White in front windshield (either side of RVM)
• 1 x Viper S2 Spectralux single head Red/Blue in side window in cargo area

One thing that I don't know much about is under-body lighting.  They are wanting LED lighting in red and blue to mount under the car to light up the ground.  Any suggestions for a good system?

Ideas are welcome!  We start work on it on Thursday.

I take it they liked their last install wish I had their budget to play with! As far as underbody I have no idea, but you could do something like the sound off rocker panel light strip?

Wow cfseu is rather public out west here. They are all cloak and dagger out east.

Only this vehicle is public.  The rest are secret squirrel (I wouldn't post them here).

The challenge with this vehicle is that the X5's have an underbody skid shield that covers pretty much the entire underside of the vehicle.

I'll play around with it a bit and see.  We may have to wait until we get the vehicle in our shop before we can determine under-body mounting locations.

A Feniex Rocker Panel? (for underneath)
