Sorry about the dark pictures. I got busy today and forgot to take daylight pictures. Can someone verify what I think these are?
i am guessing that the overall width is 88 inches. Are these Whelen AdvantEdge 5000?
I assume that 4 studs hold these on.
I have more questions after I am sure that I know what I have.
Thanks in advance
David

Yes, looks like Advantedge Plus 5000 series bars. On the cab roof is a Code 3 XL with a 3M strobe Opticom emitter in front of that.

I need to discuss this with my MO inspector, but if I could swap out the blue lenses on the rear for red and wire them in with the brake lights, maybe I could keep them. Is it possible to wire them like this, or do they need to be operated by a strobe controller?
Also, if I could replace the front blue lenses with clear, I could use them for flood lights.

Yes, you should be able to put all red across the back. Any non-rotating, non-strobe...fixed position light (incandescent or halogen) can be wired to brakes and turn signals. Until you have it inspected, I would just disconnect it all. Remove what you think you have to or change red / blue on front to amber or clear on rear red or amber. That should appease the inspector.

I am always interested in buying advantedge, advantedge plus and super advantedge plus bars. If you remove and sell any of them I would be interested.
