    Looks pretty good. Did you do a write up of the install by any chance? I've been thinking about doing this.

    Nah, it actually wasn't as tough as I thought it would be. All I did was buy two L brackets and mounted them to the frame and wired the pods to the turn signal lights. I had recently done the fog light mod so the pods act as fogs now. I can post a picture later of the brackets coming off the frame if you would like.

    Remove the headliner maybe? That's what I did because I made custom mounts. But, you don't need to do that. Mounts can be installed with nutserts, or even rivets. Or you could make custom ones to fit in the rain gutter and bolt them in to that.

    Yea , I like this method of mounting a lightbar , would you still have to remove the headliner this way or not?
