I saw the first of these a couple of days ago, good idea and they look better as well, now they need to sort out the holes in them (I don't understand why they don't stick the lights on a roof rack)

Just out of interst, when you buy a second hand police car, do they have a car stereo in them?

I think you will find that all the roof lights are now attached on a roof rack system of some sort to avoid just that problem of holes in the roof.

No they do not have a stereo in them when they go for resale. I do not think they are even fitted in Police spec cars so as to cut down on the cost.

Bugger, this is just like when I invented the enigma code and the alternator in primary school, just to be told that they had already been invented (well very basic concepts along the lines of the aforementioned, but still...)

has this happened to anyone eles?
