Holy shit Lou!! That's a hell of a find!!!!!

Before I do my appraisal, I am going to write 2 disclaimers for whoever scores these lights...

1. THEY ARE ILLEGAL TO USE ON THE STREET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- If you get caught using them, you're looking at 1 of 2 penalties, depending on how you use them - the first is a minor ticket for a violation for using illegal colored lights (UNLIKELY) - the second, and much more likely penalty would be impersonating a police officer - FELONY - we're talkin over a year in jail, impounding your vehicle, and say goodbye to getting any decent jobs in your future...

2. In order to fully use the system, you would need to purchase a siren speaker - that's the only thing that i didn't see in the pictures. For a decent 100 Watt Speaker, (which doesn't use the system to its full capability) it'd be around $170-190. To get the most out of it, you'd either need 2 100W speakers, or a 200W speaker. 200W speakers are hard to find and I don't even sell them.

With that being said...

For the whole kit - NEW you're looking at about $600-700 for everything.

Try and sell them to a firefighter or police officer??? Some of them are allowed to outfit their personal cars/trucks with lights and sirens.

Here in Virginia the volunteer firemen have lights on their personal rides, but I believe they can only use red. No blue lights.

Here in Virginia the volunteer firemen have lights on their personal rides, but I believe they can only use red. No blue lights.

Every state has different laws on colored lights in vehicles. In NY - I was authorized blue as a volunteer firefighter, and green as a volunteer emt. Same applies for NJ and I believe CT.

For the Floridians, here's what the state statutes say:

316.2397 Certain lights prohibited; exceptions.

(1) No person shall drive or move or cause to be moved any vehicle or equipment upon any highway within this state with any lamp or device thereon showing or displaying a red or blue light visible from directly in front thereof except for certain vehicles hereinafter provided.

(2) It is expressly prohibited for any vehicle or equipment, except police vehicles, to show or display blue lights. However, vehicles owned, operated, or leased by the Department of Corrections or any county correctional agency may show or display blue lights when responding to emergencies.

(3) Vehicles of the fire department and fire patrol, including vehicles of volunteer firefighters as permitted under s. 316.2398, vehicles of medical staff physicians or technicians of medical facilities licensed by the state as authorized under s. 316.2398, ambulances as authorized under this chapter, and buses and taxicabs as authorized under s. 316.2399 are permitted to show or display red lights. Vehicles of the fire department, fire patrol, police vehicles, and such ambulances and emergency vehicles of municipal and county departments, public service corporations operated by private corporations, the Department of Environmental Protection, the Department of Transportation, the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, and the Department of Corrections as are designated or authorized by their respective department or the chief of police of an incorporated city or any sheriff of any county are hereby authorized to operate emergency lights and sirens in an emergency. Wreckers, mosquito control fog and spray vehicles, and emergency vehicles of governmental departments or public service corporations may show or display amber lights when in actual operation or when a hazard exists provided they are not used going to and from the scene of operation or hazard without specific authorization of a law enforcement officer or law enforcement agency. Wreckers must use amber rotating or flashing lights while performing recoveries and loading on the roadside day or night, and may use such lights while towing a vehicle on wheel lifts, slings, or under reach if the operator of the wrecker deems such lights necessary. A flatbed, car carrier, or rollback may not use amber rotating or flashing lights when hauling a vehicle on the bed unless it creates a hazard to other motorists because of protruding objects. Further, escort vehicles may show or display amber lights when in the actual process of escorting overdimensioned equipment, material, or buildings as authorized by law. Vehicles owned or leased by private security agencies may show or display green and amber lights, with either color being no greater than 50 percent of the lights displayed, while the security personnel are engaged in security duties on private or public property.

(4) Road or street maintenance equipment, road or street maintenance vehicles, road service vehicles, refuse collection vehicles, petroleum tankers, and mail carrier vehicles may show or display amber lights when in operation or a hazard exists.

(5) Road maintenance and construction equipment and vehicles may display flashing white lights or flashing white strobe lights when in operation and where a hazard exists. Additionally, school buses and vehicles that are used to transport farm workers may display flashing white strobe lights.

(6) All lighting equipment heretofore referred to shall meet all requirements as set forth in s. 316.241.

(7) Flashing lights are prohibited on vehicles except as a means of indicating a right or left turn, to change lanes, or to indicate that the vehicle is lawfully stopped or disabled upon the highway or except that the lamps authorized in subsections (1), (2), (3), (4), and (9) and s. 316.235(5) are permitted to flash.

(8) Subsections (1) and (7) do not apply to police, fire, or authorized emergency vehicles while in the performance of their necessary duties.

(9) Flashing red lights may be used by emergency response vehicles of the Department of Environmental Protection and the Department of Health when responding to an emergency in the line of duty.

(10) A violation of this section is a noncriminal traffic infraction, punishable as a nonmoving violation as provided in chapter 318.

Also - specifically relating to BLUE lights in motor vehicles

843.081 Prohibited use of certain lights; penalty.--

(1) The Legislature finds and declares that Florida's citizens are vulnerable to becoming the victims of criminal acts through the illegal use of blue lights by the criminal elements. It is the intent of the Legislature to reduce this vulnerability to injury and loss of life and property by prohibiting the use of certain blue lights by any person other than an authorized law enforcement officer.

(2) It is unlawful for a person to use in or on any nongovernmentally owned vehicle or vessel any flashing or rotating blue light unless such person is a law enforcement officer employed by a federal, state, county, or city law enforcement agency or is a person appointed by the Governor pursuant to chapter 354.

(3) The provisions of this section shall not apply to salespersons, service representatives, or other employees of businesses licensed to sell or repair law enforcement equipment.

(4) For the purposes of this section, the term "flashing or rotating blue light" includes all forms of lights which display a blue light source or which were designed with the intent of displaying a blue light source whether or not such light is actually in use.

(5) Any person who violates any of the provisions of this section commits a misdemeanor of the first degree, punishable as provided in s. 775.082 or s. 775.083.

The only reason I'm exempt from this is because I am a salesperson for a business licensed to sell/repair law enforcement equipment. It is kind of a gray area because it's my personal vehicle. But it doesn't specify if it has to be a company owned vehicle.

AGAIN, these are FLORIDA laws. Check your own states laws to be sure
