    First impressions of the CaliRaisedLED Bumber Lightbar:

    upload_2018-5-19_22-55-8.jpg

    Wired it up when it was still loose so I could aim it. This thing is bright as hell even in the day time.

    Was a little worried my custom bumper would block too much of the beam. Luckily its so bright it barely blocks a thing.

    Supplied switch fits perfectly. Wiring was a breeze and clearly explained in their Youtube vid, but feeding the wire through the firewall was a bit of a PIA.

    All lit up at dusk!

    Edit:
    They mention that this mounting bracket solution is sturdier than the competitors, and I'm telling you right now, if you try to move the lightbar after tightening the whole thing up, your whole truck will move first. I really like the setup.

    $269 for the whole kit. Its kinda hard to find on their website, but if you email them directly they can send you an invoice.

    I like mine, but wish they had the combo pattern when I bought it. Going to move the one I have now to my prinsu rack and get the combo one for the bumper at some point

    Looks awesome. You are going to enjoy having it.

    I’ve got one waiting for me to get a day off to install it.

    Any pics of how you routed wiring through the firewall?

    Sure would be helpful. Not having much luck finding info on that step.

    When I put my wire through the fire wall I taped the end to a piece of hanger wire, lubed it up, and fished it through the rubber boots where the factory harness goes through. But you can't put it where all the other wires go through you have to put it through the sides where the boot kinda folds in on itself
    After it's through the boot you can wipe off the lube and put some silicone where you pulled the wire through (after you have everything wired up and done) just to be sure you don't have any issues with water if you want

    I love mine. I wish it had about 5 feet of less wiring for each of the leads, I dont like having it coiled up in the engine bay. One day I will shorten it to make it look better, but that will be after all my lights are done in case I use the same harness.

    I have one waiting for my truck when it gets here. So, you made your own hole in the rubber grommet for the harness?

    This is a single bar but with two rows of leds. One is a flood and the other is a focused beam. Impressions from last night is that its brighter than my 12k lumen high beams and projects about twice as far.

    I'm pretty happy with it.

    I tried using the... spare nipple? to run wires through at first, but I didn't have any luck. I could barely get the screwdriver through. Its very tight. I ended up running it through the top by folding back the rubber grommet.

    I picked the top cus I figured it'd be the least likely spot to let water in.

    Its still pretty secure, but not as good as if I hadn't messed with it.

    I love my cali-raised light bar as well. In this picture it's not lit up. It's a reflection.
