I think we need to add "Doesn't Matter" as well.
That would be my answer... honestly it doesn't make a difference to me... just as long as they aren't mismatched.
Well, :Censored:

My :2cents: :
I like 8 inch & 12*24 lights equally, because 8 inch lights are rare, and the 12*24 inch light is simply an 8 inch light with the lightheads increased by 3 5/8 inchs, and the backgrounds increased by 4 inches.


And many will hate me for this next statement, but I think 12*20 inch lights are ugly.

---

Since 8 inch lights are no longer allowed on public crossings, I voted 12*24 inch.

Gee... what kind of poll is next? Favorite visor? Favorite bolts that hold on the light assembly?

Just kidding! :Tongue2:

:aaargh: :Awww: :OhWell:

Ok, since I'm really really forced to make a decision... I'm going with 12x24.

1: 12x24
2: 8"
3: 12x20
Well, :Censored:

Mine are as follows...

1. 8"
2. 12"x20"
3. 12"x24"

12"x24" are just way too big looking in my opinion... :TDOWN:

If the crossing has 12"x24"...it must be the aluminum backgrounds and visors...not the plastic hideous ones... :2cents:

I didn't think anyone would agree with me that 12*24 is the best!
