First off Dietz 7-11. Red dome, I believe its a signal stat, its in Good shape with some cosmetic imperfections. I'd be looking for a clear dome.


This came off a 63 Mack C95, unfortunately the Truck is headed to the junkyard in the sky. This thing is sitting on a pedestal mount that I need to figure out how to remove. Replacing bulbs in this light is a PITA.

Next is what I believe a Mars 888. Also removed from the C95, it was flush mounted in the center of the front of the truck. It lights and moved briefly but since has stopped moving, I need to tinker with it. My Mars resident expert is too busy sorting through a find of her own today to answer my calls... lol Probably passed out amongst her skybolts... :) .


I'm not sure if this thing is even worth anything, but first I need to get it working.

I also got a $25 aerodynic. yep $25. The lightbar gods must be paying me back for my Jersey Fiasco.


I think its a 25 RQL-FAST, candy cane lenses clean, some cracks but for $25 who cares. Will post pictures when I get a chance.

Whoa. Dude. That Aero. Any Aero is pretty much generally good Aero, but $25 for an epic Aero is godly.


Also, take good care of that Signal Stat dome, they're hard to find. I'd be interested if it were clear.

Preach on... brotha!


As for the dome, the light has red and clear bulbs already. I would love to find a clear.


On the serious side though I am trying to read as much as I can about the 888 before I start to take it apart. I don't wanna do something I can't undo.


I think its grounding to itself, but until I can get a wiring schema I don't wanna start exploratory surgery. I probably will start a new thread just on that.
