Neither are we. He likes collecting them and so do I. I do not know the answer to your question on that light. I am sure Stubes can answer it for you if he sees this.

That makes three of us. Check out this thread from back in 2010:

As for the light, take a look at it the next time you get a chance. You should be able to get a manufacturer from it by doing so.

Ok, when I get back home on Monday I will take a look. Yeah thats the thread. These were sent in private messages, not on the thread. But either way, I'll check Monday!

The car still looks great, glad to see it has not changed!

As far as the light goes it's the same one Joe had in his 87 TX DPS car. The manufacturer was the same but it had been updated slightly and the color of the base changed. It's also missing the cover that blocked half the lens so the driver was not blinded by it.

w/cover after I restored the car.

The period correct light with the chrome base and white cover. (I think this is actually Joe's car?)

The correct light (from the in-service pics) is a Whelen Responder. I'm not sure what kind of light is in the original picture, but it definitely isn't made by Whelen.

Is that bottom pic above an in-service pic the TX DPS office took at home or is it an enthusiast's picture of their SSP?

Thank you, I could not remember the original manufacturer. I could not get my hands on an original when I redid M9-161 so I used the closest I could find. I though it was made by Whelen too, I guess not and all my receipts went with the car. I know my Mustangs a lot better then I know my equipment. That's what you guys are for
