    LED bars are deep, about 4" or so, there is no room to mount a bar all the way across the opening without hitting the winch, plus you wouldn't be able to access the winch. Plus the opening is about 3" tall and most bars over 4" wide are taller than that. Read the dev thread linked in the first post and it discusses this more in the last few pages.

    I installed a Warn XP-S winch and will probably change to a black fairlead and add a pair of 2" lights in the future. Thanks Brad.

    Sorry it has taken so long - I've got a lot going on and am lazy by nature...

    Here are a few pics of the winch bumper installed on my '12 w/ an Engo 10K remote winch w/ synthetic cable:

    imagejpg2_zps4f74aa42_d0f42570ca4ac18d6161e45814ace09218b21dce.jpg

    Texas requires a front license plate, but the plate actually works well at keeping sunlight off the synthetic cable.

    I would like it even more if my andabas light bar and factory skid plate could still be used. If it's a yes then I'm in.

    ...and now you have, they are in stock. ;)

    Tacoma is unchanged for 2015....other than some new trim/TRD packages, so yes, it will work fine.

    Finally had the opportunity to install the winch and bumper on friday just in time for our annual beach clean up saturday and got to put it to good use pulling a ford that got stuck as the waves were lapping at his wheels unfortunately no pics were taken as we were trying to save the truck before the ocean got it, both the bumper and winch performed flawlessly. My next plan is to swap the fairlead to black.

    Same as u brother the Smity x2o 12000. Did u have difficulty installing the front two winch bolts? Not sure if it was do to the thick linex coating but if the access holes were moved up an 1/8 to 1/4 it would have been a lot easier as I had to gently persuade them past the lip and hopefully I won't need to remove them anytime soon as that may be a bitch to get them back out
