    So We have this two bay Non attached garage, it has power, but none of the lights work (wiring to them is screwed)
    I want to get something to give my light to work on the car. I don't care if its on the ceiling floor mount clips etc.
    Trying to keep it cheap ~20

    Im thinking of two harbor freight halogen lamps.

    Jake had suggested strip LED's.. I did them in my shed and it's great.

    About $10 for a strip..another $10 for a power supply
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    I've seen Led shop lights at Walmart for like 25 bucks. Might have been the 48 inch tube type bulb.
