Hi there I just wanted to let you know that I think you have a awesome set up and if no body pulls over to the right and stops then they are blind and deaf if they can not see or hear u from a distance
That siren is really cool. Curious to know how it works. In case you can’t tell I have no idea what I’m talking about, but I find your videos cool. Also that thing looks mean on that last shot! Haha
I joined a facebook group called “emergency warning lights for sale new/used” and got several things there. If I had to guess everything would be around $4000. But my vehicle is extremely complex. I have a 30 gallon air tank with compressor. 2 electronic sirens and 1 mechanical siren. I have a interior light bar made by Whelen. Nothing is from China. You can save a lot by buying import stuff. I would start with a name brand used interior light bar and rear light stick. Then buy perimeter lighting from there. I have Whelen, Code 3, Federal Signal, Feinex, Sound Off, and Grover products on my vehicle. All of it is American and all of it is very expensive. All of my air fittings came from the Parker Store. Why? Because I bought cheap ones from online and they all leaked. Parker store air fittings are expensive but guess what, they DON’T LEAK! I also have a complex wiring system for my Federal Signal Q2b siren, using 2 extra batteries. The sky is the limit. Feel free to ask any questions you have. My email is mamrak76@gmail.com
@@code3responsevideos872 It came with a bracket for a 2015+ f-150 and I have an 05. Was curious to see what yours looked like. I’m gonna end up buying a universal mounting kit.
@@austinpayne745 mine came with brackets for an explorer I think but modified them myself and they work just fine. Had to bend them a bit and drill a couple new holes. Nothing major. I can make a vid for you
@@austinpayne745 not sure. They are not labeled. The matched right up with my visor brackets but the bend was off to make the bar level and minimize flashback.
i hope its not like your last video forever lol you got good videos guy! keep filming lol and hey guy... i love the extra addons of the truck! looks awesome brother!
@@code3responsevideos872 yup i might have read the title wrong... but i do enjoy all your videos! and i was just hoping you wasnt going to stop filming lol it said final pov and i was thinking based off your videos tittle i was like is this his last video or what haha... so i thought id ask lol
@@code3responsevideos872 this isn't an upfit though...it's a whackers wet dream. You say this is your POV... So you are a volly, which is great! But you can get all that other stuff on the engine. Why put it all of it on your car? Less is more. When you mature you will figure that out.
@@drwheycooler8423 There is a lot of “we have been doing it this way forever so it much be right” and “my way of thinking is the right way of thinking” in your comments, and closed mindedness can be detrimental to progress. I’ll give you a few examples of why I have a Q and air horns on my POV. There has been research that shows that in today’s modern automobiles electronic sirens struggle to penetrate the new insulated interiors. This is attributed to 2 factors. The fact that mechanical sirens emit a square wave and the face that electronic sirens emit a sinusoidal wave. The square wave penetrates better. Not one person who used both would never disagree with the mechanical siren’s effectiveness over an electronic. The air horn gives you the ability to alert an intersection or a distracted driver if they are failing to yield. Although I am a volunteer I still respond through a major metro city. Which is heavy in traffic conditions. If you go back to the 60’s and 70’s all police and fire command vehicles had Q’s. They were commonplace. I think electronic’s are great but they’re an easy out, but only offer ~ 75% of the warning effectiveness of a mechanical siren. I saw no place for putting sub par emergency equipment on my vehicle. This is something I’ve learned as I have matured. Do it once, do it right, and buy the right tool for the right job, even if it’s not what everybody else uses. Even if it’s not easy. Even if it’s not cheap.

Awesome
Thanks for the comment!

can you show us how you mounted every siren?
BEAUTIFUL BEAUTIFUL BEAUTIFUL truck! Absolutely love it.
Hits the Q *mic drop*
Hi. Just out of curiosity, about how much did your entire setup cost. I’m thinking of doing this for my POV, and your car is my inspiration for it.

@@code3responsevideos872 Thanks! I have a couple of lights right now, but this will definitely help a lot👍
Can you show how you have the visor bar mounted in detail. Just bought a whelen inner edge and need a way to mount it. Thanks!
Did you not get any brackets with it? Is it an xlp?

@@code3responsevideos872 That would be great! What year model explorer was yours for?

Your back
My states only allows blue lights for volunteers and you have to fire 1
Nobody asked
Why are most the response videos gone
Edit
@me so I can see the reply
@jaywhitaker my department made me remove them.
Sad
Does the q have a brake?
It is on my workbench. It need to be repaired and reinstalled so no currently
What is the headlight flasher ?
It’s a Sound Off Signal solid state headlight flasher. If you type that in google it is around $45. Part number ETHFSS-SP
Whats the lights on the grille
Those are Whelen M7’s
what state do you live in?
Ky
@@code3responsevideos872 I want to move there now
@@code3responsevideos872 i live in kentucky too bro ! i live in louisville and thinking about doing this !
@@itsmixer12 send me an email if you want to check out my truck in person. Mamrak76@gmail.com
Wait is this your final video
No, just saying I am done putting new things on it.
i hope its not like your last video forever lol you got good videos guy! keep filming lol and hey guy... i love the extra addons of the truck! looks awesome brother!
Thanks! What do you mean last video forever?
@@code3responsevideos872 He's referring to the way that the title is worded

There's a saying... Less is more. This is where that would apply. This is preposterous. A Q and Grovers...on a POV...and sooooo many lights. 🙄
I’ll remember to ask you next time I do an upfit to my vehicle
