I was cruisin craigslist last night and happened to come across a cheap light bar, well cheap in my mind...
The add was this...
So I called the person to see if it was still available, I had to take a chance seeing that it was more than a month old. To my surprise he did in fact have the light and he said that he wanted it out of the garage, make me an offer. I offered $10 per foot, $40 and he agreed!
Light works fine and the lenses need a little cleaning. Only problem I've found with it so far is the white end caps are damaged... 1 is missing a large piece of plastic and the other one is cracked. It has 2 clear cutouts for the take downs (darn things are square low beam head lights) and 1 yellow cutout in the rear for the rear flashers (again low beam headlights) It also has cutouts for the alley lights (they are about 4" round floods, I don't remember the Par #).
All in all I think I got a good deal. I plan to get some pics of it this weekend and maybe better videos as well...
Update: Pictures, not that great but better than nothing...
