The NZ Police have used the Code 3 MX7000 lightbar since the 1990s, and there are even a few Federal JetSonics still in service. Over the last couple years however, they have been superseded by these new custom LED bars made locally by Nautech Electronics.

(Sorry, had to swap the original “Blinded by the Light” soundtrack for “Flight of the Bumblebees” – still quite appropriate!)
