If you want to control it from the CarPC, the Fusion Brain will work.

But you do know that it is illegal to have blue flashing lights on your car in both the US and Canada because police use that colour.

In New Jersey, EMS and Fire Fighters (volunteers) are allowed to have blue emergency flashing lights on personal vehicles as long as you have a permit. Thanks guys!

The legality of flashing lights varies from state to state.
In Texas, you cannot have a red flashing light. In other states it's blue flashing lights.

Bit of a minefield for those aliens with the flashing lights on their flying saucers, isn't it?

Wasn't aware of that, but just trying to cover our butts. Dont want to tell someone to use the product for something illegal.

I thought that blue was the default emergency light? Never seen red before, but I am red/green colour blind anyways!
