Know of any suppliers? All the ones I have found have been roof magnetic ones with a *** lighter cable. Do you think folk would see a dash mounted one? Could be a use for the bright button at last

Just spotted on the M42 a fully striped up MY01 WRX. Thought it was a copper at first, turns out to be a fast response doctor !!

Who needs air ambulances ?

Just hope the driver doesn't enjoy it too much or he might start taking the scenic route to call outs.

I was thinking of getting a green light for mine (GP), but I hear it scratches the roof. I like the pink light on the Clio 172 advert but it wouldn't look right on a Scooby.

I think you would be struggling against Sid Watkins with his AMG prepared 5litre C-Class Estate.

I think Anders's 22B would give it a run (when it's working)

/practical hat on/

having had just a few magnetic aerials on the roof from when i use my car as a taxi a decent piece of polythene sheet between the magnet and your bodywork fixes the problem.

john banks,

I've got a magnetic orange one for work, that didn't scratch the roof or fall off, had it on up to a ton+ Could find out where they got it from.

Plugs into the *** lighter.

Email me if you need more details. You could always cut a piece of polythene to protect the roof.

Cheers Phill C
