What this mod does
KDE Centor Series Lighting is KDE Modding’s (UCJOHN_) emergency-lighting collection for ATS: lightbars, beacons, small LED lights and the full kit of a pilot car for oversize transports. It is a growing mod, with more lights planned.
What it includes
- Pilot-car equipment for the Ford F-150: frame mount behind the cab, warning lights, “D” and “OVERSIZE LOAD” signs, Centor-4 end lights with a wig-wag pattern, flags, banner mounts and a 20-foot yellow height pole.
- Complete amber Centor lightbars in five widths (60 to 220 cm) with alternating or triple-flash patterns.
- Configurable Centor Deluxe lightbars: a housing plus per-section LED panels in 12 colors, with A/B timing.
- Rota-Centor beacons with mounts at several heights and small lights (Torpedo, Centor-4, Aux, Bullets, LiteXL and Xtreme reverse lights).
Compatibility and controls
It is for ATS 1.62.x and works on SCS trucks, sleepers, aero caps and trailers, plus some Road Trip: Ford DLC vehicles (the DLC is only needed for those). Lightbars and beacons use the beacon key; marker lights follow the parking lights and reverse lights follow reverse gear. Enable only one copy of the pack.
Details and version
It was released on October 26, 2026 and updated on November 7, 2026 (version 1.5). It weighs 9.5 GB, has about 2,900 subscribers and 4 stars (63 ratings). The author asks that it not be reuploaded or published in edited form; requests and bug reports go to kdemodding.com.

Why is it so big?
9.5 GB of light models and textures; that is what Steam shows.
How do I turn them on?

Does it work on modded trucks?
The author lists SCS trucks; one comment could not see them on a modded W900.
