30" Light Bar Install - Easier Than You Might Think

No problem! Happy to help.

For some reason, mine didn't come with one but I think that was an error. The one I listed is supposedly the one that comes with it, they sent it to me for free

 

Is it possible to do a flush mount with the no drill mounts from caliraised?

 

I believe Caliraised, Rough Country, and others have a flush mount offering. It's different brackets but I believe they still bolt on to the crash bars without drilling. You have to cut the front grill pieces for the flush mount though. The one I used is considered the stealth mount.

 

How much trimming did you have to do?

 

Installed mine the other day happy with it but did some cutting for my button as I ran outta button space. One thing I couldn't figure out was the red 2 next to the green (positive wire) on my microtunning switch on to which green wire I should tap on so I didn't add it. I'll figure it out later lol anyways here ya go. Haven't tested it out in a dark alley yet so here's some teasers. Thanks for this thread and the guys who help make this thread !

 

Looks awesome! Great looking truck. The bronze rims look badass, I considered rims that color as well but went for black. See below for my write-up which I believe answers your question. It's the green wire from the cargo rear light which is the switch on the far left. The green wire is the first wire. See below. I removed a little bit of the sleeve for the cargo light and retaped it with electrical tape to have more space to use the t-tap.

 

Sub'd - Thanks for the write up!

My Rigid Industries 30" is sitting in my office, and waiting for my Mictuning switch to arrive + a sunny day to install.

 

By cargo light do you mean the truck bed light ? If so I'll try n do it again ! Thanks bro!

 

Yeah the bed light at the top of the rear of the cab (the far left rocker switch). The green wire is the far left wire of that far left switch. Take a look at that picture I posted, hopefully that helps. Good luck!

 

For sure thanks bro ! Will let u know as soon as I get some time to do it

 

Cool, let me know if you find what you need or if you need any additional help

 

I was just about to ask the group, but it looks like your switch does the same as mine. The top emblem light stays on at all times, right? I have my Red2 wired to my tail lights so that when they light up, so does the text. I have my Red1 connected to relay. But I'm worried that the top image being on all the time is going to cause a battery drain. Are you having this issue?

 

I'd recommend tapping the rear bed lights' green wire so that it comes on with the interior lights when the headlights are on. By default, it'll stay on unless you tap one of the interior lights. I had the full wiring in my write up.

 

My red 2 I haven't connected yet . But my emblem only goes on when I turn the LED on . Other than that it's not on

 

So are these things legal?

 

California = off-road use only

 

I don't believe its legal to use on the road in any state. It spreads the light pretty far which would be blinding to other drivers.

 

Pics as promised.

 

I must have a unique switch then. I've done everything except for attaching the relay to a fuse, and the light remains on. Path forward is ordering an add-a-circuit and and wiring the relay to something else that's not on all of the time

 

Thanks for the info in the write up! I just kept it tapped to the tails which does the same thing. Only problem is that I have two lights on the switch, one that always stays on because it's plugged into the relay and the relay is plugged into the battery. I'll probably take the relay to the fuse box with an add-a-circuit and that will fix the light issue
