Why do you want one, are you a volunteer firefighter. If you are not I would advise you not to put a siren in your vehicle.

Thats kind of illegal using one just for the heck of it, I am a firefighter of 3 years I I would advise not to use it just for aggrivating neighbors its used for Fire department business "responding to calls."

I know some do, but the vast majority do not. I know Va doesn't, and I'm almost positive NC doesn't either. He's in NC.

I had a buddy that had one out of a '71 Cadillac ambulance in his old K5 Blazer. Not sure about the legality but he sure had fun with it - hilarious at times.

> and for aggravating the neighbors

If you are serving the public, imo, you should be setting a good example. Kind of like saying you are a Christian, Jew, Muslim, etc. and then going out of your way to cause strife. Not a good quality for a firefighter or policeman. Whatever they have done to cause you to dislike them, do not use your job to get even, imo.
