Sweet! Can't wait till others start using them for PS use, think of the cheap Hemi Charger's once they reach their replacement date.

Around here it's every two years that they replace the squad's. And most of the time they are still a good used car when they are done with it.

My brother and I have dobe about 15 of them both marked and unmarked. I will gald to answer any questions you have. We have done both regular stock models and police package models. The Police package models are nice due to the factory wiring that is done for you . Also the headlight flasher and rear light flasher are built in to the car. You just have to trigger them with 12 volts and a 47Kohm resister.

Did you follow the manual and install the right 47K resistor inline on the headlight turn on?


Here is the complete install guide.
