Hi Guys.

I installed (4) Whelen Vertex LED hideaway strobe lights into my 4runner a few days ago. I took a few pictures in hopes that it would help out others that are installing lights into a 4runner. I also have (2) Whelen TIR 3's in my grille & (1) Whelen Slimlighter in the trunk. The TIR's and Slimlighter are much more orange in color than the amber vertex lights. I'd call the Vertex a more canary yellow than amber. I'm thinking of trying an orange sharpie like another guy did on another forum board. :D

I could always lower the rear window if the light is not bright enough. :biggrin2:

Nice write-up, & great pics! You obviously have a purpose for all these items you have installed. Looks like it turned out great. What do you do? Firefighter? Police?

I don't have an official purpose as you may have, but on a previous vehicle I owned, I had quite a bit of money invested in the audio system, and some other mods I did on the car. I installed several regular white strobes in the tails, and the corner lamps in the front which flashed when the alarm was triggered. I also had 4 piezo sirens inside the car, and three sirens outside. I've been thinking about doing something similar with my 4Runner (not so extreme, but similar).
 
Tir3 in the grille vs Vertex. Both are amber is color

Sorry, camera is kind of old and might not be doing the lights any justice.



Slimlighter looks a bit brighter if I roll down the back tinted window.

I'm a Nationally Registered EMT and I also volunteer with the Fire Department.

I'm happy with the pics...I like to give back to the 4Runner community. :D
