    I am hauling more OVERSIZE LOADs, and I am deciding how to permanently mount the beacons. I think that if I mount one on top of the cab, since the law says they must be visible from the back, I would also need a rear beacon also. But if I mount them on mirrors, then they would be visible from the back. But I am not sure if a blinking beacon would blind the driver at night?

    Any suggestions?

    Also I am generally suspicious of Chinese LED products as they are very badly made. Anyone has any setup they like.

    Mount on top of the mirror bracket above the drivers sightline, one on each side; not sure what states you run, plenty want them front n back even if you can see them 360*.
