I purchased a used dual color Nforce bar and on the front, the two inboard heads are dual red/white and the two heads closest to the ends are dual color red/white. How can I tell if the middle inboards are dual color as well? I haven't downloaded the configuration software yet. I was hoping that I could look at the LEDs on the board and tell. Is that possible? How can I tell if these two modules are both red and white/clear?

If you look closely you should be able to see the individual LEDs through the lenses when the bar is off. They'll be on the bottom of the reflectors, pointed up. If it is dual color there will be two different colored LEDs right next to each other. The white LED is a light yellow color, I'm not sure what color the red is.

I did this and definitely notice a difference in the modules. I guess the ones I were hoping to be dual color, aren't. I was hoping I had a bar that would full flood the entire front side of the bar. I wonder how difficult it would be to find replacement modules that are dual color?
