That type, I just want to see a picture so i can see how the tips on the ends of the flat part sit over the cab, a led strobe is going to be mounted on each, and maybe 4 slimline halogen lights in the middle. Ive searched google and no luck

Why the strobes on the front? I, personally, would want something that faces 360*...

There gonna be blue strobes, its for the fire department, 360 ones are unsightly to leave on the truck all the time, with those they'll be low profile, I also am getting two ambers for the back and two more blue for under the grille

You misunderstood what I meant, or I wrote it wrong... I meant take 4 of these lights, and put them on each side of each post. I strongly advise that you have intersection lights (the lights that face each side of the pickup), they create a better safety barrier. You wouldn't even have to put them on all 4 sides of each upright. Just one on the front of each bar, back of each bar, and one on the right side of the passenger bar, and on the left side of the driver side bar.
