    Howdy all,

    Wanted to share my lighting fixation

    Lower grille 32 inch with Rago Fab brackets
    Up top is a CaliRaised 52 inch curved bar with GGLighting roof brackets. No drilling, using existing nutserts

    The bars are combo lighting. Center spot and site spread.
    Both wired to single dash switch for now.

    Really nice. Very clean look. I'm about to buy the lower grill light bar and happened to stumble on to your thread. Was it necessary to use Rago Fab brackets to mount the light in the grill? They are kind of pricey. I figured you could use spacers to get it to the appropriate height. Which lower grill light did you buy? Any tips would be grateful.

    Looks like a clean install. I’ve never been a big lightbar fan. Maybe a hidden one behind the bumper but I’ve never liked the windshield mounted bars. The added wind noise drove me crazy

    Some people on here have uses Hoem Depot L brackets. I tried it but don't have a VICE so it was either buy a VICE or the brackets. I think few other shops now sell the brackets. I think CaliRaised is one of them.

    There is wind with the lightbar cover off. With the neoprene cover on it has Zero noise. Also since its wetsuit material it goes in the car wash and out easy.

    Hope this helps.
