    Yeah. I don't have a light bar but never had any trouble with the lights I do have. I got pulled over only once and got off with a warning (red light) and he didnt even say anything about the lights. Commented on the suspension and said he liked the truck :cool:

    I guess it comes down to who pulls you over I guess.

    I believe it was Sidetracked Off-road that has covers. I don't think they had them on their web page, so you have to call.

    Well its a land Cruiser with a diesel so I've got that going for me.
    This. Email Morgan if anyone wants light bar covers. Much cheaper than rigid and no logo.

    Are the covers a universal fit? I have been looking everywhere for covers, so thanks for the tip. I was told that you cant get the vehicle inspected without the light being covered, is that correct?

    My cover's have been on my Ditch Lights since day one; I work in the hood and have not had any problems. Knock on Phil's head!:D

    Most if not all the lights are made in a Chinese factory using the same STOLEN blueprints.

    As long as the covers are on, the inspector should not give you any problems. I have not had any! If they do, tell them to show you the rule book and then ask Ben (EndersTaco) to decipher.

    I have no cover for the one behind the grill. No trouble last year, and just put some black gaff tape on it yesterday. Everybody had overnight wait for inspections so we left Lauren's car (expired) and hopefully I can find a place today.

    Yup universal stuff. Should work on any light bars. Just give him an email and he will get you sorted out. My 50" has 6 covers on it.
    Just go to the website and hit contact. Morgan is the owner and is awesome.

    Passed inspection. They didn't say a word about the black tape on the light bar behind the grill.
