Probably a silly question. But does this cat still have working 'woo woos?'

Reckon they'd notice if he took one to work?

[05omegav6]

They might register that he's out in a car that works as intended

Just an update on OOX -

Fully working video camera with VHS record and Vascar, operational light-bar. Just the speaker to source and awaiting for a dummy tracker system to arrive.   

Nice! I have OY53 URM!! 

How do you get on with the battenburg? Would you still need the 'Out Of Service' & 'Not in Use' magnetic signs if there were no 'Police' wordings on the car at all and just Battenburg?  Only reason i ask is because i have all the blues'n'twos installed on my car (apart from the roof light bar) and would like to add the battenburg and then maybe just use some magnetic 'Police' signage for the shows i attend.

Where did you obtain your battenburg?



I must have a different board in my boot as its much neater and all on one sheet of wood - That wasn't a backhanded dig by the way

Being a member of PVEC or PCUK helps with explaining it away at the roadside. Also need to have written permission, ideally from your local constabulary to order the battenburg kits... the firms simply won't supply it without.

It goes without saying that any blue or red lights (flashing or otherwise)/headlight flashers/sirens must be rendered inoperable whilst the car is on the road. This must be by removing the power connection outside of the passenger compartment. A switch in the glove box simply won't cut it...

Also any Police wording, web addresses, force crests must all be covered up when on the road along with signs in the rear window and on the drivers side saying 'Not in service'. The light bar must be covered unless the lenses are clear, and must be inoperable.

You also have to keep a log of every mile the car covers, with times/dates/reason for journey/where from and to/mileage in and out.

Worth noting that force crests are copywrited too, so you would need the relevant permission to obtain/use any
