Nice to see that the Police actually get some adequate funding for new cars. Great to see grille lights introduced, as the lightbars on Paddy wagons always tend to be pretty high (to hight to see in the rear view mirror when it's behind you).

On the down side, shame they still use those crappy lightbars (rotators are so out of date).

New Headlights? Now you mention it. Slight facelift. Have they changed the interior or the mechanical stuff at all?

i agree with you there elm. the lights are pretty high up and hard to see when they are right up behind you.

grille lights have been fitted for a few years now havnt they? thats what i thought atleast...

as for the car, They are BF MkII utes... no major chaged to the mechanicals or interior.. just cosmetic changes.

The slight facelift you speak of is because it is the MkII BF Falcon, The MkI just looked like the BA.

For what its worth, halogen rotators still give the best 360 degree coverage - something LED's still do not achieve.

I beg to differ. Good strobe beacons are better than rotating lights anytime.

LEDs are directional, but only if you build them that way. Stick them in a Vector lightbar and they have an awesome 360 degree vision.
There are single beacon LED Lights out there, but I've never seen them in action, so I won't comment on that.
