The lights, sirens, and radio build may follow or precede another build that will also be modifying the jeep. That build is the off-road and suspension build. Some items with the lights and sirens build might have to be installed before or after and may require multiple trips to complete. An example of this would be lights in the front bumper guard or other parts of the body. This is a very fluid build and most items can be substituted or rearranged, whatever it takes to complete the build. See Attachment 01 (Statement of Work) for details.
