    I am slowly growing in confidence and competence to haul larger loads. I totally respect the responsibility and refuse to jump too far too fast. I am currently hauling up to 10' wide and will increase in the next few months. I just purchased a low pro step which has warning lights already installed.

    I want to purchase lights for the truck. LED strobe(s).

    Where can I purchase and have installed a nice set of lights installed? I live in Mechanicsburg, PA. I'll have it done on the road if necessary, but it would be great if I can have it done while at the house.

    Thanks in advance!

    Look online at different companies and have it shipped to your place and have your local shop install
    AW Direct and a place in Lexington Ky has different style lights

    Depending on how professional of a job you want you can also look for emergency vehicle upfitters in your area. They will be able to get you what ever you want for lighting.

    Of course you have to find one with the time to do the job. And it will cost a pretty penny. If it was me, I'd be looking to a truck parts place, such as Six State Supply or the like, for the lights. In some cases, they might do the install as well, but if not, have your shop install them. Of course, if you have the time, and the experience, you could install them yourself.

    I got a 2014 Fontaine 53' low pro with ramps. Been shopping for months. Finally found one that had all the features I was looking for at a good price. I also has the warning lights built in.

    We have installed smaller individual lights made by ECCO and have had no problems with them.
