Push Bumper LED ( Side Warning ) Suggestions needed for 2011 CVPI .

[TX-LEO]

I'm going to install my own white LEDs on a city vehicle for side/intersection warning as this was deemed not important.


I have been out of the loop as far as LEDs and equipment for a while now.


Are there any bolt-on items that anyone has used that will fit this idea that someone can suggest? The LEDs will be installed on a standard push-bumper ( sides of course ) on a 2011 CVPI.


A quick search revealed Whelen has 46' LINZ6 brackets, but not sure I want that type of angle and was thinking of simply mounting a linz6 to the side for 90 degree angle.


Any suggestions appreciated.

I have some Tomar Rect 25's in blue and red that are perfect for that application (in fact, my chief has them on his push bumper, although he has a charger).

I had Tomar RECT13's on my Charger (I know the OP said CVPI) for intersection lights. It's more of a TIR optic but they worked quite well.

Yep! The Rect13 and 14 series is great, as well. They can screw right on to the push bumper frame. They're potted and hermetically sealed, as well as come with a 5yr warranty. I'm a Tomar distributor, so if you're interested, shoot me a PM!

Use Feniex T-4s with adjustable mounts, then you can change direction to what ever you want. I can get for a discounted price. msr510@aol.com

4LED (or even 6LED) Pimp Pods work great on the sides of push bumper!

All good suggestions provided. I was also thinking of putting a couple of my own TIR3s on the sides that I Took off my old goldwing.

well just do that then... I would put alot on the side of a PB because it is easy to put too much there and doesnt look good. Another option if your wanting something a little larger than the TIR3s and maybe dual color or split is the Sound Off Ghost flush mounts.

I wanted something with a bit more punch than the TIR3 style, even though a few of the ones I have are linear.


I didnt know those ghosts were available in flushmount too now. That a good idea. I will have to keep my eye out for some used ones.

Whatever you end up with, your on the right track with the clear. That is the best color for intersection attention. With it being Texas, you could do a split clear/red on either side. Are you going to put HAW LED's in the marker lights? If so, go clear with both and sync them to alternate. that would be some good intersection lighting!

There are corner mounted LEDs in there yes. Thats a good idea. I'm not sure what brand they are, but it should be easy enough to pair them up.


On the mount holes, drill a pilot hole then use nut/bolt type system? I doubt a sheet metal screw is going to be strong enough for a pushbumper.


ETA: as you can see there are holes, but very unlikely they will match up to what I buy.

You can flush mount TOMAR's Rect-13 and Rect-14 light heads, as well!

 

[TX-LEO]

I like the ghost ideas flush mounted. I need to see one to see what kind of off axis they provide.

I added LAWs on custom brackets to my PB for intersection warning.

I have some Federal Signal Impaxx in white and 45 degree brackets also, NIB. These come with a bezel & gasket & can be surface mounted also.


I'll make a fellow Texan a deal, & fast shipping !

Thanks for the offer. I'm going to have to wait a few months before I do this as I have a few trips planned. Cash for stuff like this is scarce and I'll likely be doing it sometime after September. Will keep your suggestion in mind though.

I would put Tomar Rect25 High Power. If you have the money I would use a light with a bigger footprint. You have a lot to choose from. You can also mount two smaller lights side by side like my freinds install. Look at the interesection warning. He also put a Vertex surface mount a little further back. Enjoy the vid.

 

[TX-LEO]

Yeah those work well!

I love that car!

 

[BUFFaLOT]

Is that Queens Blvd? If so, what are the cross streets there? I think I've seen that car before.

I used Whelen M7's on the side of my PB. They work perfect and have good coverage.
