Not complaining here - just sharing pics of an older J-tube Edge bar I took apart. I got the bar free from our site founder (thanks John!
) & this is NOT any of his doing.
Other people's "modifications" sometimes scare me:

nmedge4.JPG[/attachment:23h4ndv4]Broken parts were UPS's fault, but, how the hell do you get tree parts & what appears to be a peach pit INSIDE a lightbar?![Eek! :eek: :eek:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
nmedge6.JPG[/attachment:23h4ndv4]Ground wires all over everywhere & in a common ground color... :roll:
nmedge3.JPG[/attachment:23h4ndv4]Yup. Someone hacked in 1156 bulbs in place of standard Edge halogen modules. & no, a few of them were not even straight. The plastic modules were held to the other plastic stuff with drywall screws...of course...
nmedge5.JPG[/attachment:23h4ndv4]& how did they get the 1156's to work? Simple. Just cut off the connectors & whip out the soldering iron!
Needless to say, the bar is stripped down to almost nothing - haven't taken the rest of the corners out yet. & it will be an updated & better working 52" bar when I'm done with it.
