    Exterior Light(s) for my Garage

    Thanks for all the suggestions guys! I think I am going to go with a gooseneck for up high, but I gotta check the clearance on my mounting location to my 2nd floor door swing. And then I may go with some extra lights on the far sides for added light coverage so those snowy nights snowblowing.

    The boxtser is 51" Tall The 88 is 52" Tall The 96 is 52" Tall. Call it 105" for the 2 cars stacked on top of each other with no space. Add ??? for the actual lift pad/catch pans. That will leave x" for the garage door and other track/mechanicals to fit above the cars.
