The Interior of the 3M
This is probably one of the more popular brands so I opened mine up to reveal the interior from the front. The actual programming so this signal is viewed from a specific lane only is done with installing optical tape on a clear lens in the back, and mounting a frosted lens over it. Each section has a wire shroud installed to hide wiring. That way, wires shadows aren't visible on the front lens.

Do these use regular traffic signal lamps or floodlight shaped lamps?

They use 150w three pronged PAR lamps. They have the best fade out effect out of all the signal lamps. Very Happy
