Nice folks at the Animal ambulance updated there old lights to led. I was just in time to save these 2 and a half bars from the thrash, the engineer would have waited one week before he would thrown them all away.

The Super AdvantEdge 5000 light bar is a flush mounted bar, and bigger then the normal AdvantEdge, equipped with 2 rotators and 3 halogen lights. Also the lenses do have a rounded profile. Don't see them often!

Thomas and I met up last week and we traded some parts with eachother (thanks again ;) ), so now I have in my collection for the first time this Super AdvantEdge Plus lightbar, in parts at this time.

Are there still lenses available for this one? With the 2 frames I now have I would like to make a red/clear setup on 1 of the 2?
Not to hijack this topic Thomas ;) I'll open up a new one myself as well, thanks again for the trade!

This site has some stuff. http://www.fixmyambulance.com/category-s/1840.htm I contacted them a few months back and they said they could special order 4000 series lenses (he confirmed that when I questioned him... I didn’t think 4000 were still available). I didn’t end up buying any - so still unsure whether actually true - but perhaps they can do same for 5000 series.

I have a 4000 and 4500 flush mount and have ocassionally seen some 5000 stuff on eBay in my searches for 4000/4500 stuff.

No problem, @Rene Foppes , (happy with the trade!) there's this site in Ohio, maybe they still sell some lenses...http://www.parrpse.com/product619.html (if you're going to buy some, let me know ;-)

Those prices are pretty high for some lenses but it's at least one address where they got the stuff...
I do have the rotators myself, with the larger reflector, the halogen 600 units as well, that will be no problem.
