The pivoting assembly additionally includes a cover plate coupled to the body of the light bar. The pivoting assembly is configured to transition between a closed position and an open position. In the closed position, the cover plate extends within the central opening and the light bar is positioned so that the emitting axis does not extend through the central opening.
