Police car light kit

gromitvt10 · Oct 30, 2009, 09:57 AM

I'm looking for a police car light kit (including light bar) similar to whats below to fit a 1/10 scale car. I've found a few but they are for 1/18 scale cars or smaller. Here is a link to exactly what i'm looking for, unfortunatly it's to small for what i need. Thanks

Gosh I hope someone replies because I'm after the same thing for a Hummer.

Kyle, if you use an aluminium light bar, you could use LED's in the scale casings.

Well it would need to be a non-R/C toy with working lights. I don't want to pay 1 hundred bucks for a car i'm going to take apart, ya know what i'm saying. I'm going to try in Toys'R'us to find one. Thanks for the replies and keep you eyes open for anything i could use.

Hey Gromitvt10,

I've been talking to policecarmodels / copcarcollector... I'm guessing you've visited their site.

They said they've got no 1/10 scale police cars or lights and have no leads where to find one. Looks like it's gonna be a tough hunt.

gromitvt10 · Nov 04, 2009, 07:36 PM

Deathstar,

Yeah, no one seems to have that size. 1/10 or 1/8 scale would work. We've got our work cut out for us. Maybe we should make them and go into business..lol

deathstar · Nov 04, 2009, 07:48 PM

No luck @ toys'r'us? I'll try Chinatown or something.

Thanks a bunch!! This is what i found, it's a bit pricey but is pretty close to what we are looking for. But i think i'll have to snag parts from different things and make it myself.

Thanks, do you have a pic or video of them working on your vehicle? Looks like something i could use. Thanks

MGBGTRacer · Nov 08, 2009, 11:33 AM

No pics- I think I bought the first set from them in 1990 and I've probably had three sets. They make a 'pace car' kit with a light bar that I used to make a... yup, pace car.
