T5 replacement --- upgrade to radions..
 
Hated the heat generated from the T5's,, decided to upgrade to Radions

beginning of ripping apart the hood

what to keep ,, what to chuck,, ended the only thing that was left,, was the timer and the cooling fans

custom mount made of lightweight aluminium/plastic sandwich for the radions
