I am in the planning process of outfitting my 96 Suburban 2500 and need some ideas. The only thing I am sure of is that it will have whelen mirror beams (unsure if they will be TIR6 or Lin6) and led HAW's. I am not looking to put a lightbar on top of it. It does have a brush guard on it. I am looking for any pics of suburbans or silverados from this era. I am going to stay 100% led also. If you have any suguestions of something you have seen that works great with these models, anything you have installed, etc..... Also trying to decide between a dash light or a interior lightbar. Thanks for the sugestions - Kurt
Kurt,
I had a 1999 Suburban... That was before they came out with the new body style. Don't have any pictures off hand, but I set it up like the Suburban in the movie US Marshals... I used an ISP 188 and ran 4 strobes up front... 2 in high beams, two in lower corners in an "X" pattern on action flash, and 4 strobes in taillights. I unfortunately didn't get farther than that because I got my old Acura...
So since you're going all LED... Here's what I suggest...
- Dual Avengers or equivalent on either side of the
RVM
- Dual Avenger or equivalent on the lower dash - Center
- Mirror Beams (Linear)
- D8 or equivalent on the Push Bumper
- LinZ6 or M4's on the side of the push bumper
-
HLF
-
LAW's as you see fit
- Fed Sig AS124 speakers... as many as you need
- Single Avenger or equivalent on the rear doors for central side warning
- D4 or equivalent in rear side windows
- D8 or equivalent in rear window
-
LAW's in tailights (I recommend 2 per side, they really popped with 2 strobes per side)
- LinZ6's on the rear license plate
I used a ProCopper Console in the truck with success. I doubt there are many consoles still floating around for that age truck, but keep an eye out for them. Put your choice of siren and lighting controls in.
Just my 0.02.
