Because it's a cop car, there's a hole in The Beast where the spotlight used to live.
The Lovely Harvey and I are in agreement that that hole should be filled with a spotlight.
The correct one is hard to find used and when you do, they're asking $250 for just the light and are nearly always missing the mounting kit.
I've seen sellers asking for $350 for one.
If this was a rare, out of production, collectible, perhaps the prices would make sense.
But Unity still makes them and are happy to sell anyone a brand new light and mounting kit for $262.28 shipped and taxed from their Amazon store.
Also, Unity responds to questions in a timely manner.
I put out a "want to buy" on a Facebook group and someone offered me their light for $60. I said I'd take it if it was complete. They have not replied for three days. It's the internet age, you have hours to reply, not days.
Don't jump on the first thing you find. Let me check my surplus contact, he gets former police cars frequently and some come "as is" with only the radio/light bar/radios removed.
ReplyDeleteWell, Amazon is really good about returns... I ordered a brand new halogen one.
DeleteOh well. The cheapskate in me cringes. Even so, hope it works out as advertised. Post a pic when you are done. ;-)
