Default Light Bar Question

I bought this light bar at an auction last night
not that i needed it but three factors that influenced
my decision to bid was this.
I could see it was a small unit (ssp mustang size)
I was with a friend that could take it home (had a truck)
and ......wait for it...........no one else was bidding!!
So now that i have this here at the house does anyone
know if this unit was ever used on any SSP Mustang?
Also
In doing an EBAY search i found the same unit that
had NO lenses (all clear) and the seller stated that the
lenses had been removed per EBAY rules

Are you sure it's 46.5? I think the 48" light bar actually measure 47.3 or so. Several of the states used this type light bar on the SSP, although most had the speaker housing in the center.

You can get around the ebay colored lens thing, take a black and white photo and don't mention the color of the lens in the ad.

Is this a chain driven model?

I just measured 2 48" jetstrobe bars I have and the top ends do measure 46.5, the curvature of the clear cover actually extends further to make the total length of 47.3.
