By the way, which LED's are you referring too, the light bar complete or the individual light units such as mounted on the bonnet and vehicle sides?

Any way, back on topic I highly doubt a cop car would hit $150k when based on a XR6T.

Yep, thats what our boss says, $250K for the thing by the time it rolls out the door as a fully decked out ambulance (this includes all stock though, all your medical stuff, purchase cost of the van, interior fitout, comms etc), I'm talking about the LEDs mounted to the bonnet and grille and the single units elsewhere on the wing etc. Not sure on the LED lightbar.

Yeah, did you see the Tasmania special operations ambulance? Has the rear air suspension, electric stretcher base, carries a 500kg person etc? Cab chassis Sprinter with dually rear.
