    The lights are LEDs from Costco on sale for I think $27. I wasn't sure if they would be bright enough at night but they are fine.

    Yes Mark, the lights in the pic are the LEDs from Costco. I don't remember the lumens but 4500 sticks in my head.

    Rich, I too was a little worried the first time I put the 34 on the lift. It stopped about 2" short of the light just above it. After it reaches the top I drop the lift down to the last set of safety catches, about 1". I can stand upright in some areas under the coupe but have to duck going in or out. I would have preferred another 4-5 inches but I can live with this.

    In some of the pics you can spot some of the other ongoing projects taking up coup time; bench with a missing spindle, rototiller, sit down big wheel grinder repair for yard art and still some unpacked boxes taking up space.

    I bought these from Amazon and converted my fixtures, a lot cheaper
