    Thinking about buying a N-FAB light bar for my Tacoma. Just wanted to know if the members who purchased one how they liked it.....was it easy to install and if they have any pictures of their Tacoma with the bar on it? Or would you recommend a different light bar all together?

    I just got mine and haven't had a chance to install it yet. I will report back after I get it installed.

    New bolts/nuts/flat washers/lock washers from Lowes. The holes in the radiator support are already there. Just move the horns and mount the lights in place using the combination of nuts and washers to lock everything in place.

    I say go for the AvidOffroad light bar!! Now I dont have any lights mounted on it but I like it plain. These guys can weld as many light tabs as you need.

    I think the NFAB is the cleanest lightbar available... it does not conflict with the body lines of the truck. Its sits lower than other bars and doesn't block my satoshi grille. It was super easy to install, piece of cake.

    see sig or build for pics

    I can't say enough good things about my NFab light bar. Very well made, easy install and looks pretty darn good in my opinion. I highly recommend it.

    You just remove the old emblem. It just unclips off. Widen the holes with a small file and the horn emblem fits right in. Just bolt it up.

    Anyways don't wanna thread jack, back to the n-fab :)

    This was kinda answered but not sure if it's what you were looking for. You used to be able to buy the replacement badge with the horns on TW, but I believe there was some sort of trademark issue ( correct me if I am wrong ). I dont know if you can still get them here or not....
