    Shouldn't LED light bars be mounted in front of the truck, otherwise there is glare of it being above the windshield? Unless this is a just for looks thing... or if they make spot beam pattern only LED light bars? Just asking...

    yeah, i'm not too sure about glare when mounted all the way forward like that. those with small glare shields or moved to the B pillar don't have any issues. also depends on spot v flood too obviously.
