How did you mount the forward facing lights? Did you have to drill holes or use separate brackets ? I'm trying to put my lights on but I don't see how. I'd really appreciate the help.

Hey everybody sorry for the delayed response! I'll try and answer all questions in one post. First of all like I said columbiaoverland.com is a terrible website, but they are awesome people if you don't see the rack just call the that's what I did. The switches did require a very small amount of dremel work. I did drill the rack out to mount the lights on the front. And all the wireing is passed through the grommet in the firewall and through a screw port on the factory roof rack. I did have to drill through the roof of the truck!! But a little silicone and it's water tight. After passing it into the cabin I had to drop the headliner, and from there I just got creative going under the weatherstripping along the jam until I could go under the dash. Hope this helps
