RVM LED Light for 2013 Interceptor - looking for ideas

[Andy L.]

I have a 2013 Interceptor Sedan to upfit in the near future. The vehicle is an administrator's vehicle and needs just the basics. I have everything figure out except a light for the front window.


Has anyone put a dash light above the RVM on these yet? Doesn't look like there is a ton of options with the large blacked out section.


Requirements for the lights:


1. Must be center mounted, or single head on either side to keep a balanced look


2. Whelen light, preferably a sync product


I am open to suggestions. My other thought is a Whelen L31 in blue to use as a throw light. I'm not too crazy about that concept.

Have you thought about doing an offset dash light? Maybe a dual Avenger on the passenger side.

Personally I can't stand the look of an offset light - but I asked the customer his opinion on an off set and he agreed....doesn't like it. So the easy solution is out. I suppose a Slimlighter would work but I was really hoping for the ability to sync with the rest of the setup.

What if you did two single sync avengers on inboard visor mounts?

Fair enough. I can't say that I'm a fan of it, but can't say that I hate it either. Have you thought about doing two single Avengers(or a similar light) on either side of that plastic piece? Should produce the same results as a Slimlighter, but you will be able to sync with everything else.

How about (2) Impaxx IPX6 with the new NGPI bracket kit: http://www.fedsig.com/pdf/MU457_IPX6_Headliner_Mount_July2012.pdf


> SpectraLux multi-color capable (incl steady burn white for takedowns)


> Synchable


> Shrouded to minimize flashback


> Designed to mount offset

Whelen ion (sync type) mounted in a spitfire housing?


Or


Whelen TIR6 lighthead x 2 with custom brackets and shield? (Haven't seen this done yet, but seems like a great option if possible to overcome the slimlighter sync issue.


Lastly


Slimlighter TIR6 same dual color wired to a flasher?


GOODLUCK....

Thats what you need, those look great. Is there anything for the deck out right now?

I'd say a spitfire ion on either side of the RVM. The synch wire is there, you just have to tap into it.

A single sync avenger on either side would look good. You can get an idea of what it would look like in this video.

Agreed... and the footprint should fit perfectly between the tint and the RVM frame.


Why the fixation on an RVM mount though ? A VersaStar or Dual Pred on dash is really cool (and probably more efficient !)


And by the way... COOL ride !!! Especially for admin duties...
