I am thinking about adding Amber and White strobes. I also am allowed to run green strobes so I'll add a pair front and rear. Want the Expy to light up like a Christmas tree. Should be fun.

I have hide aways in my back up and brake lights, plus my front marker lights.

Very simple install. I highly recommend Whelen strobes, not LED hide aways. The strobes put out a much better flash than do hide away LED's.

what are you planning on doing with the strobes? are they for interior effect or side of the road warning? led light heads are the way to go. the prices are better than they used to be and you get brighter lights and more flash patterns.

I love the license plate. And that is EXACTLY what I am looking for.

Whelen is what I was looking for. I was looking at Gall's. Just need to find the right ones and need to figure out who here can install them. Also, can any of you guys show me how you have yours hooked up to switches. I'd like to just wire them into my hazards.

I assume yours are just for shows right? I know in VA, if you run Green on the street, you have to be able to prove you do professional security.

I plan to cover my ass while pulled over to the side of the road. I'm far more concerned with running Ambers and Whites than I am with running greens. I'd like wigwags but I think they may be illegal. So, either way, I need 4 in my grill, a row in my back window like in Alaskan's Excursion, strobes in my taillights, and possible a small row in each quarter window.

Go to www. strobesnmore.com They have much better prices and customer service than Galls.

They will also be able to supply you with everything you need, and have videos of just about everything they sell posted, so you know in advance aht you will be getting.

As I already posted, spend the extra money for Whelen products. Made in the USA and AMAZING customer service.

I have all my emergency lighting controlled by dedicated switches in my siren/light controller (Wheklen HFS295SLA6).

I also have Vermont issued light and siren permit.

Good luck!

If you have a smart phone you could download Tapatalk also, it's like 3 bucks and makes uploading pics a breeze. It's what I've been using since my 2 year old stepped on my laptop.
