MX7000s are my favorite! Never gets old (There is a reason they lasted from 1988-2017). Ill be running an all blue one on my POV here soon. I have 3 MX7000s in my collection!

You are right.... the light output on these bad boys is incomparable! I have 4 in my collection, and they are all very different.... there is this one, which is the most common (except for the relays), then I have the strobe model with Traffic Advisor, the custom All-D-Tech version (The only one with a silver speaker grill), and my Custom-All-Flasher model. They are great bars for sure!

Lots of filters! I like it. I'm assuming the "204" on the top center dome is the unit number? I've always wanted an MX7000!

@AdamsLights

Yes on the filters!! And although it's hard to see in the video, all of the rotator filters are split, and are reversed on the rear... so what is red on the front, is blue to the rear... and what is blue to the front, is red to the rear. And to make it even MORE messy.... it's a 700-series flasher on the lower front, and a 710 flasher on the lower rear.... so there are two different flash patterns at the same time. To answer your question about the 204.... as far as I know, YES- that was the unit number. I am not 100% sure where this bar came from, although someone once told me that Seattle used to use clear bars with filters, and internal relays.... but I have never been able to confirm that. You definitely need to get yourself an MX. Not only is their light output second-to-none.... they are GREAT project bars because they are module, SUPER easy to work on, and you can cram a lot of stuff in there.

@@AdamsLights just started researching these builds. I bought a wrecker with a code 3 mx7000 attached. It has all clear domes and looks to have all LEDs for the front side and rear. Found a type R sticker but not if it's lights or? 1set has red filters with a strobe led attatched. Each section has 5 of this type of lights. Whole bar has 4 rotating assemblies. Each section has a diamond reflector in the center. The two outside rotating lights have what looks like Amber turn signal bulbs in them. Looks cobbled to me. Center section have two rotating lights with high intensity bulbs? Starting form scratch and havnt located the controller just yet. I'll be looking for some advice or help locating some parts for it. Another lightbar hobbist is now aboard.

Interesting that the center is just a diamond mirror. I'm going to be building two MX bars from scratch in the coming weeks, I just got in a bunch more parts.

Actually, when I got the bar, the center was totally empty. Those relays take up so much space, that nothing else can fit. I happened to have a spare mirror laying around, so I through it in there.... it's essentially just sitting on top of the relays :). Good thing my bar doesn't move! Thanks for watching!

You know it's sad. This hobby is only cool to us. I wish more people liked this stuff. It would be cool to go to a light show or something

204 isn't the unit number, it's how many amps this bar draws when everything is on.

I'm new to light bars. I just bought a Code 3, 360 at a yard sale that has red, white and blue plastic covers instead of clear like the one in this video. Looks to be complete with a wire harness and a bunch of wires. I don't know how to hook it up to see it light up. I'm new, any help would be appreciated from you guys that know this stuff.

1. Remember it's 12v, so use a car battery. 2. Find the large black wire, and connect it to the negative terminal on the battery. 3. While leaving the black wire connected, start touching the other wires to the Positive terminal on the battery one at a time, and take note of what each color does. Each one will activate a different function of the bar. Good Luck!

@@AdamsLights Hi Adam, Thank you very much. Turns out it works beautifully. I touched each one and they all worked. Then I bundled all but the large black one and they all came on. When I did them one at a time, The four little rectangle amber lights flashed. When I did them all together they just stayed on. I don't understand that.

I always liked the slow rotators and normal speed rotators. What do you think about fast rotators and slow rotators
