Default looking for a 48 inch broken light

I thinking of doing a led lighting system for my new tank. What I'm looking for would be a 48 inch lighting system that no longer works or just cheap. Must be a good looking case. Something like a corallife system. Let me know if you have anything kicking around in your stash. Must be 3 inchs thick or more in the middle. Thanks

I have an oddysea 4 bulb T5 HO fixture you can have cheap. ballasts don't work, so it's no good to me.

Won't get much better than this:

Thought about it myself, keeping the T5s in place and retrofitting LEDs in the center.

Yeah that's a very nice light but it would be a shame to spend that much. Considering I just want to gut it for a diy led project. Plus a waste of a very nice light.

If you don't fix anything local I have a 48" coralife shell that had the internals stripped should work, shipping may be costly tho.
