    Default Pictures of personal and/or company Security patrol vehicles

    I thought it would be cool to share some pictures of either personal vehicles used for security jobs or maybe some company pics. I understand some people may not feel comfortable throwing company pics on here but maybe interior shots or whatever. I have a Grand Marquis i have set up to be a good security vehicle for special detail jobs i do. When i first started doing these jobs i was driving an older Toyota Camry...It makes a big difference to have a deterrant vehicle and some components in the car to help make the shift go by faster. I bought my car from a used car lot and added tinted windows, cb radio, laptop stand, Amber/white strobes for the front and Red for the back, GPS, radar detector, Dash cam, Dual antennas.

    Becarefull that those magnetic mount antennas don't rust your trunk. If keeping those antennas on the car is a long term plan of yours, I would suggest going to a place like walcottcb.com and purchase antenna mounts for the trunk that either "clip" on to the trunk or are permenant mount. Also I know most states are okay with red flashing lights to the rear, but if you personnally have not read your state's motor vehicle code. I would suggest you do, some states (like Kansas for one) are anal about flashing lights of any color. Just because someone other then a LEO says it's okay or your company's vehicles have lights, doesn't make it legal for your POV.

    Thanks for the tip on the magnet mounts. I always make sure i read the Local and State laws regarding everything security, i never take anyone's word for it. In Indiana, you are able to have red, white, or amber in the rear of the vehicle (any combination), and for the front amber/white only. I actually know of a few security officers who go ahead and put the red and blue in their vehicles anyways, which is fine if you are LEO but they aren't so best of luck to them when they get pulled over.

    I don't have any available right now but I might post something when I'm back at work on thursday, currently doing mainly retail patrol.

    We drive fairly new Ford Fiestas, no flashing lights or other stuff like that, just the GPS and a bluetooth hands-free. I like that type for urban driving.

    I assume that could be used to mount a laptop.
    I just wonder what the function of the tubing that connects to
    the center is?...........air conditioning or...?

    That tubing is the floor mount of the laptop mount.
