    I have a 2015 taco that is 2 months old. That being said I don't want to drill holes into the body atleast for now. But I want to put a 42" led bar on top but I've only seen videos of people removing the doors weather stripping and then drilling through. I've heard there's magnetic mounts but haven't came across any.


    Also I want to put a bar in the valance is there a certain length bar I can stick on there while utilizing existing holes? Such as removing a exisitng bolt place the mount on top and the rebolting from there?

    Any help would be appreciated also any recommended models would be nice thanks

    I have a access cab

    what cab style is your truck?


    edit: looks like access cab?


    i was going to say the double cabs have the oem roof rack mounting points and there are light bar mounts that bolt to them.

    Well even though you don't have the threaded holes, drilling to bolt on a light bar mount isn't that different. Just make sure to put some rtv or silicone caulk around the holes to seal it. The Oem holes need to be sealed anyway.
