Hello fellow ELB members!
This time I have another great addition to my collection to share with you! I have a Federal Signal FDNY Spec mini-Aerodynic ADX22-FDNY-FD. I found this one through another collector friend. When I first received this light, it had a broken dome, broken solaris module and the led mounting plates were bent. My friend said the light got damaged from falling debris during a fire. Unfortunately I do not have any pictures of the incident. So first I ordered new mounting plates through EMTAnderson and new domes from Toyotafan. Then I completely disassembled the light. I had the frame re-Anodized (which I have never had done before, I usually powder coat) and it turned out great! I had all the screws re-plated, the plates powder coated (because Federal sent me used led mounting plates which had scratches on them), Wilsonbr90 replaced all the white led buttons with his upgraded ones (there were a couple buttons out in the original ones) and a nos set of mounting feet. I even requested a build sheet from Federal to make sure it's put back together according to spec (see pic). This was another lengthy restore, because of everyone/everything involved. It took me over a year on this one LOL! The end result was outstanding and I am very happy as always!
I knew YOU would want a video of this one so I tried my best, but when I emailed it somehow the quality went to crap and don't know why. You guys will have to live with it and be lucky I even tried LOL!! There are two white Solaris modules in this light bar which are only activated when the engine is in drive. Look closely at the video, as I power them up shortly after I power the light bar itself. I hope you enjoy and I will try to figure out why the quality went to sh*t.
Thanks for looking and as always, stay tuned..........!
