    I have an 02 4 door tacoma, looking to mount a light bar. The mounts I have are drilled into my doors, not the roof. Anyone know what size bar I need? I was thinking 42".....

    working on it!
    I just bought the relentless low profile mounts. they work good, just remember before mounting to make sure your wipers will clear the light bar

    I put a 30" bar behind my stock bumper, I liked the idea of going behind for a few reasons, one of them being it makes it much harder to steal, you would have to take the bumper off to be able to get back there to un bolt it. I didn't cut my valence at all, it does cover the 2 bottom outer L.E.D.s but, its still plenty bright, and I don't miss the little bit that are covered because I have 10" more of lights....

    What light did you throw under there? I can make mounts but that looks so clean did you need to do any cutting??
