The Busted M-250R2
Got four lights from Craigslist. I paid $30/each for two in good shape (an M-250R2 and an M-400) and he tossed in this M-250R2 and a 2013 OVZ for free since he dropped them and damaged them. The OVZ just has a tiny crack in the door and lost its glass. This one suffered a bit more damage. It's missing a chunk of the door at one of the tabs to hold the glass in (so a glass cannot be installed or else it'll fall out when the door is opened) and the housing and door are both dented in at the front, which messed up the alignment, making that large gap you see between the door and housing. I tried to bend the top housing back to shape and cracked it so I'll salvage the guts from this and toss the cast housing and door and possibly try to find a replacement empty housing and door.

I repainted the top housing with Rust-Oleum "Aluminum" paint and it turned out great! Once I get a new door I'll paint the door silver as well.
