If that don't beat all. Appears to be a sanitary, maybe even a (ahem) factory installation. Correct down to the slotted screw used on the upper left base of the sliding band light assy. 

I'm at a loss to explain this one. If someone modified a five-band set to have dual drive, they did a ______ (thing that holds back flow of a moving body of water) fine job of it. 

Could this be some kind of very late production run set, or even a prototype?   Icon_wtf
