What brand brush guard? I'm still trying to figure out how that intersection bracket you made for the side of the brush guard works (as in how the wires are run without getting pinched) as for a dash cam- I'd get a go pro if you have the $ which judging by all your lights, shouldn't be a problem OR get a cheap dash cam from Walmart (I just picked one up) not sure how the video quality is but for $30 heck, why not?
I also use the Walmart one, I upgraded the memory card so it doesn't loop as often without saving, and the quality is pretty darn good. Has been good for catching wrecks when it needs to.

The brush guard is a Weston. I made the brackets for the side lights in case in change the lights (tends to happen lol) I can just make a new bracket and use the same holes.
I will check out the Go Pro camera. Is there a mount for a windshield?

They make a suction cup mount but it's kinda big, if you end up getting a go pro I would suggest getting one of the newer ones (they're a lot smaller) and find a spot where you want it and use the mount that has 3m tape on the back, she'll never budge with that

That. Is. Epic. Sync'ed even the trailer, badass. Digging those alley lights.
If you're still looking for a dash cam, gopro came out with a new hero (gray in color) for like 100 bucks. I have a hero 3 silver plus ($350) and a gray one. Easy to use and indestructible. Most of my videos are shot usong them.

Holy blinkies batman! From a distance, I bet people confuse your POV and trailer with a full-size heavy rescue! Love the flash patterns/sync, and I only wish the mechanics in our shop looked like your girl (way easier on the eyes than the old guys that maintain our rigs!)

You can go full 1080. I keep mine at 720, easier to upload. All of my response videos are shot using the Hero 3 silver.

My neighbor has a shop and we been making some brackets for Feniex lights. It all started with the guy that I plow for wanted a simple way to mount a couple extra lights in the rear of the pick ups. I wanted to add a couple ambers to the front of my truck. So we made a bracket for that. It is a taller T3 bracket. I used the bolts from the off road lights. Simple.

Looks good.
I use 1.25 inch angle aluminum to fab up my T6/3 brackets. Lil spray on bedliner works perfectly.

How did you run all your wires from the front inside the hole in the passenger floor, there doesn't seem to be a great way of doing so without them being zip tied to the frame

all our brackets are made from stainless. I like the plate bracket we came up with. It is much sturdier and you can adjust the angle of the lights.

I came out through that hole and went along the frame. A bit of a pain but it worked. I have a lot of wires running out to the front.

I been changing things up a little bit. The interior bar is a Feniex Pegasus that was gutted and now has dual color Fusions in it. It is synced with the dual color Fusions on the mirrors with a Whelen ULF44. One the brush guard is a dual color Fusion 600. I usually run all red so I can add the white to the 600 with a separate switch. In the fogs are older 120 Cannons. They are two mode but will be changed to 3 mode. They are also used as fog lights. In the fogs are a second set of amber white 3 mode 120 Cannons. I have the amber wired separately from the reds. The front flood mode will turn on the ILB, mirrors, 600 and a pair of Cannons in the fogs.
Tomorrow I will be getting new 3 modes for the fogs and some rocker panel lights. I got single color. A red on each end and the rest are all white to be used like an alley light. I have good coverage to the sides so I figured that would be enough having red ends. The sides have a red Cobra to the side of the brush guard, mirrors and a Cobra 400 in the side rear window. It is all synced with the Whelen ULF44.
This is the first decent day we've had in awhile. This was taken in direct sunlight

Nice. I'm surprised the ULF44 worked seamlessly with the dual color fusions.
Is there any way to flash the 600 all clear then all red? (ie triple flash clear then triple flash red). I think that'd be way more effective.
Id also like to see some clear flashing in the ILB in mode 3 (alternating half ILB clear and half red) for some extra solid color punches ;-)

I usually don't use the white and if I do it is to a minimum. There are two warning modes on the 600 and I usually run it all red. I believe there is a pattern where it flashes all red then all white. I just like there is a flicker in this pattern that I like
I used all Dummy heads in the ILB
