As kempie says, unless the vehicle is actually used for ambulance purposes the blue lights must be removed - you can't have blue lights or anything that appear to be blue lights.
Also it's unwise to be driving round in a vehicle with ambulance markings without equipment or training - sods law says you'll get flagged down at some accident or other.
