New York State Police FINALLY getting new lightbar.

New York State Police have made the switch to the Whelen Liberty II on their new Chargers, unknown if it will be the same lightbar used on the new Tahoes.

I like that they went with colored lenses again. I'm guessing LR-11 TD's surrounding the center white again?

Big question is what did they do with the back? Did they do the mismatched blues & ambers again that drove me nuts?

well colored filters not lenses but Igor your point, and as far as the back is concerned it’s still the same setup as well. The front flash pattern though is different when vehicle is in park.

Looks great with the filters in the bar. Anyone have a rear pic?

No but its setup like the old lightbars with the R/B/A/R/B/R/R

Here's the car in "Park Mode"

That's their "new" light at? A bit behind the times are we?

Love the new bar and slow park flash pattern; i think they tried to get too fancy with the new ion riser bars as an all-around lighting solution, instead of focusing on a solid lightbar for primary warning (& maybe adding something such as the risers as “auxiliary” warning in troops that cover a lot of highway).

I just wish that they’d block the amber and blue in sections in the rear, though, and give all units (not just slicktops) mirrorbeams and a centered dash light

Liberty 2s aren’t really behind the times, and they have been cost efficient with reusing lights up until this point.
