Sweet! Where did you get the small Grote spot lights and what light bars are those and where did you get the propelloray?

@@gtemplesrt8 the Grote 5-3/4 deck lights stopped production last year, so gotta eBay hunt them. The 48" code3 XL light bars are findable in the vintage light markets, but the blue domes are super rare and expensive now, since production also ended on those in 2019. LP or MX bars are more findable/cheaper, and blue domes for MX bars are still produced at a cheap $50 per price, as apposed to $500 per on XL blue if separate, or $1500+ for a complete single bar. Propellorays are super hard to find in the vintage light markets now, and hit about $1k-2k when they do pop up... Back when I sourced parts for a few of these builds this stuff was still findable and reasonable, but prices have skyrocketed over the past 3 years with the new movies out.

@evilmechanic237 well that figures, everything I want always seems to cost a fortune! Lol I don't have a car but I'm doing a crew cab fire rescue 4x4 version. I'm just trying to get stuff thats close. Just had a guy quote me $545 for a pair of Dietz lights that are very close to the PAR 46 spotlights. The 4 smaller lights on the roof front and back of the car.

@@gtemplesrt8 well since you aren't doing an accurate vehicle you aren't stuck with finding the hard stuff. Go for the much cheaper and easier MX light bars and any red light and it will look great
