Default Knight Rider LED lights in SS hood

I have a 2002 Camaro SS and I think it would look pretty cool to have the Knight Rider flashing lights they had in the Mustangs hood scoop. Any ideas?

I searched forever until I found a bar that was the right size for the scoop.

Then i did a little dremel work to make it fit. then ran the wires inside to a toggle switch.

Idk anyone else that has done one in a camaro but me. I did see a black one but it had red flashing lights like police lights or something.

The site i got it off of isnt up anymore. I know the scoop is 15" wide i believe. I just searched for scanners that were that wide. Then i took a dremel and cut some of the edges off and mounted it in the scoop. Then drilled a hole in the back of the inlet routings under the hood so you couldn't see the wires coming out. Then ran the wires inside to a toggle switch and got power from the cigarette lighter.

I think it would GREATLY effect the ram air of the hood though. But I didn't need ram air anymore so It all worked out.
