Posted: Mon 2-Apr-2007 21:06 Post subject: The Whelen \"Holy Grail\" Detailed PICs ADDED!!!! |
|
|
Here are some detailed pics of the 5000. That white stuff on the base is sticker residue from a price label maybe? This arrive in its original box with that funky fiber fabric that Whelen shipped their lights in.
This is indeed a \"Quick Disconnect\" model...note the old school lighter plug....
Detailed PICs added!
