[David Paul]

That is a slick installation. Nicely done....

Some night pics while driving. One of the coolest mods I've done, I'm really happy with the install and the way it performs. Wish I had done it sooner.

I just used a couple of 2" L brackets and mounted them to the side rails of the rack with some 5/16" carriage bolts.

Perfect width for the rack. Looks awesome.

Careful pulling into a parking garage

Don't have one on the roof yet but think utilizing the rack slider bolts somehow to make a swing arm to raise/lower it would be cool

I finally found a car wash that it fits in. With the light I'm sitting right at 7'.

I'm gonna take it loose and try to drill another hole in it so that the brackets run even with the rails. Should lower it about 1 1/2". Not quite as clean as far as lines as I would like.

Definitely interested to see where that cuts off when you sink it lower. Take photos when you do.

The "4D" style spot/flood reduced my lumen count compared to the lesser watt old cracked normal style spot flood bar from middle asia.

No switch. Mine is relay triggered off of the brights. 6-HI mod & LED Bar all on with the turn lever.

Great installs everyone. Thought about this very thing for my 07 a while back but wanted to see it done first. Looks like I've got some work to do.

Any pics of where you ran the wires and drilled under the cap? I know mine will be slightly different but some ideas would help.
