Black Oak LED police light bars are built for marked and unmarked patrol vehicles that need full red and blue warning coverage without the height and wind noise of a legacy full-size bar. Every light bar on this page is available in a Red & Blue configuration, runs Generation IV LEDs behind TIR optics, and ships in an IP69K-rated extruded housing that survives pressure washing, road salt and continuous duty cycles.
What size light bar for a patrol car?
Roofline width is the deciding factor, not vehicle class. Measure the flat span between your roof rails or door jambs and subtract two inches. Most agencies running a full-size sedan or a Ford Explorer Interceptor land on the 49".
| Size | Typical vehicle | Mounting |
|---|---|---|
| 17" | Unmarked units, motorcycle, interior deck or dash | Magnet or headache rack |
| 30" | Slick-top supplement, mid-size SUV crossbar | Door jamb, magnet or headache rack |
| 43" | Compact and mid-size patrol sedan | Door jamb or headache rack |
| 49" | Full-size patrol sedan, Explorer, Tahoe | Door jamb or headache rack |
| 55" | Full-width SUV and pickup roofline | Door jamb or 4x headache rack |
Red and blue is legally restricted in most states
Red and blue emergency lighting is reserved for authorized emergency vehicles in nearly every US state, and the definition of "authorized" varies. Some states permit volunteer responders to run blue only, or red only, on a privately owned vehicle with a department permit. Others prohibit it outright. Confirm your state statute and your department policy before ordering a red and blue configuration. If you need a legal option for a personal vehicle, look at our amber warning light bars.

Red and blue police light bars by size
Every link below opens the bar with the red and blue configuration already selected, so the photos, options and controller you see are the exact bar that ships.
17" red and blue mini light bar
Unmarked units, motorcycles, interior deck mounting and slick-top supplements. Runs on magnet feet or headache rack brackets. See the 17" bar in red and blue.
30" red and blue light bar
Mid-size SUV crossbars and slick-top builds that need more punch than a mini without a full-width span. See the 30" bar in red and blue.

Police light bar questions
Are red and blue light bars legal on my vehicle?
Red and blue combinations are reserved for authorized emergency vehicles in nearly every US state, and the definition of authorized varies. Confirm your state statute and department policy before ordering. If you need a legal option for a personally owned vehicle, start with our amber warning light bars and the amber warning light laws by state guide.
What size police light bar fits a full-size patrol SUV?
Measure the flat span between the roof rails or door jambs and subtract two inches. Most full-size patrol sedans and SUVs like the Explorer land on the 49" bar; full-width rooflines take the 55".
Can one bar run all red or all blue?
Yes. Every module runs either ordered color at full output, so the same bar runs left and right zones, alternating, all red or all blue, with 24 selectable flash patterns and a 3-mode traffic advisor.
How do these bars mount on a patrol vehicle?
Door jamb straps that need no drilling, bolt-on headache rack brackets, or magnetic feet on the 17". Power is two leads, and the wired controller plugs in.
