    ok so i just got my BAMF light bar aka elusive elements light bar and i was getting it mounted today. i moved the horns and the temp sensor but when i tried to mount the lights for fitment the left light (while facing the truck) went in fine but the right one was hitting the small radiator. the lights are 7 inch kragens from gtlightingusa. now i know that many people have put lights behind their grills and probably some have run into this... i just cant find anything on here.

    is it possible to move that small radiator? if so where have people moved theirs to? or should i just try to do smaller lights or a led bar?
