What year did the Chicago Police start using the light bar on the squad cars and using a sticker for the motto "We serve and protect" instead of painting it on the door?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1971 saw the first Mars lightbars on a few cars. More were added each year and by 1974, all new cars came with the Mars bars. The fender sticker first appeared in 1972 and was used until the department switched to white cars in 1975.
