I picked up a Code 3 MX-7000 58" light bar for my truck to plow snow this winter..
I paid too much (found out after the fact) for it($300). It had extremely oxidized lenses, bulbs out, failed flashers, and a draggy rotater. No switch head, no gutter brackets, the list goes on. Most was found out after I got it home.
So I:
[*]disassembled it COMPLETELY
[*]rewired portions that needed attention
[*]rebuilt rotator motor (turned armature, re-faced brushes, etc.)
[*]sanded and polished every lens
[*]replaced all bulbs
[*]replaced flashers
I'll be making a 5-switch control box for it, possibly this week. A fuse block and Bosch SPST relays will be used for each light circuit.

As it sits right now..
I'll get more pics up, this evening..
