Message	Use 48" T-12s low on the wall along the side of the car at each wheel well. Also find the halogen above the garage door that is focused in the rear hatch when opened. I also made up a lightbar to hang over the engine bay. It is a good source of adjustable light w/ extra outlets for dremels, etc. Notice the four foot vertical florescent. It either lights up the rear wheel well, or can be easily slide under the car when extra illumination is desired. _________________________________________________
