Can you also make a version with black rims? Please and thank you :)

It looks great! The only different things I'd do to it is maybe add a few red lights in the light bar, and have the cheap looking black rims. But anyway, great job!

There are many police commands throughout the US that use only Blue or Blue / Amber warning lights.... While many municipalities have incorporated Blue into their Red or Red/White color schemes, its not happening so much the other way. So I think having just blue is great. Maybe making a second option with red & blue would be nice too mut there are so many red & blue set ups from what I see on youtube.

Hmm, I didn't know that. The police in my area have red\blue, and the sheriffs have red/blue and yellow/white. The sheriffs in my county have 3 Dodge Challangers, 1 marked, 2 unmarked, a Ford Expidition, Ford explorer, Ford Taurus, and like 4 Chevy impalas. They use to have a Chevy Silverado, but they sold it to the emergency management because it was terrible on gas.

Up here, red is reserved for fire and ems. Amber is for warning lights such as plow trucks and towing, and blue is for police. We don't have any cruisers up here to my knowledge that use both red and blue or all red.

HCDPS · September 19, 2012

Many agencies in the eastern half of the United States use blue for police and red for fire/ems. I spent many years living in Georgia and Florida and both areas I resided in used that set up so I have to admit I'm partial to it. Though the agency I work for now uses red /blue so that's sort of growing on me...

I personally prefer red/blue light's, blue/blue well i never understood that whole concept since red and blue are for "Enforcement" procedures which is why you will never see any other response vehicle other then police with red/blue, sorry for going WAY off topic.

That actually depends on where you live. Where I live, construction vehicles and tow trucks also have red and blue lights.

Seriously? that's i've never heard of that (then again i apparently live in an igloo according to most americans' (joke)) but that is weird considering EMS, FD, or even Tow Trucks are not alloed to have red and blues cause they do not enforce anything, even though they are a responding vehicle, hell, a Parking Enforcement told us that the Nova Scotia Government is trying to pass a law they aern't even allowed to have any lights on while the vehicle is in motion including yellow ones which all tow truck companies here use.

HCDPS · September 20, 2012

Yeah it's very weird. This is the only place I've lived where anything but fire / police is allowed to have those colors. Everywhere else it's been amber.

Like I said where I'm from originally police are blue lights, fire is red lights, everyone else is amber lights.

Most of the tow trucks here have a combination of red / blue / amber, but there are some construction supervisors that have personal vehicles equipped with more red / blue lighting than actual police cars. It's really weird to see some old beat up junker car at the beginning of a construction zone with enough red and blue lights to make a code 3 run safely...

As far as I know, the construction vehicle thing here is an exemption to the law. The construction supervisors are only allowed to have those lights on while their vehicle is parked in an active construction zone. It's intended to be a way to get drivers to slow down approaching the work zone because they think there are cops there.

It's still messed up to me though.

Where do you live at? blue is offlimits anywhere in the US that i know of. I doubt canada is any different in that respect either.

White strobes and orange are the norm... red slides in some areas but blue? i dont believe it.

J T · September 20, 2012

i too am not a fan of all blue lights for police vehicles it just doesnt look very police ish and we are taught in drivers ed to pull over for red AND blue lights...our departments use red and blue

HCDPS · September 20, 2012

Texas.

Things are different here, after all this isn't the United States. It's the sovereign Republic of Texas. At least, some of the more crazy people here would have you believe that lol.

Here's a picture of one of our tow trucks with a blue / amber lightbar.
