Hi Folks,

I just measured the height from the ground: Saturn LS - 25 in, Coach - 37 in, CJ7 Jeep - 42 in. The Coach height was higher than expected.
The light assemblies installed are the issue. Higher output bulbs could be the solution but not the blue ones (covered in previous responses). The Jeep also has poor throw and luminance. The Saturn has the best coverage and luminance. My question is, who out there has rectangular assemblies, and are pleased with their luninance from their car or coach?

Hi Dean,

In the old thread (Unhappyh....),there was a post giving two links which provided the answers to blue bulbs and their problems. They are not higher output after filtering and have short life.

I knew there was a reason but could not remember...tks. Someone should nominate you for the "techno-man" award...you are a real asset to many. Sometime or another look forward to meeting you. The first Pepsi is on me! All the best,
Dean

the blue bulbs are SHOW use only, and say so on the box. Blue lamps are federal color for Police use only, while on-road.
