    I'm looking for the measurement between the two LED mounting brackets on the CBI T3 front bumper. Their website says it fits a 20-inch single row LED light, but I'm noticing not all lights are created equal.
    Or what light have you installed in your T3 bumper?

    Hey man hope this helps. It looks like the opening is 21 inches exactly and the bracket is set back just a little bit ~0.25 in from the opening. I tried to get an exact measurement from the inside of the bumper but it wasn’t possible with the bumper installed. Hope this helps and good luck. Btw have the 20 in caliraised single row led bar installed.

    I talked with CBI today about the light bar. I was told the light mounting points are 21 7/8 inside to inside. I couldn't find this anywhere on their website so I figured I would add it here. Good information because not all 20" LED lights will fit as I found out. Oh well.

    Yup, some have the wires on the end that obstruct their mount. I have a ebay knockoff of baja and it doesn't fit.

    The China light bars say 20” but they measure from the ends of the mounting studs not the actual light itself. Baja Designs the actual lighted part of the bar is 20” and if you count the mounting studs it’s 22”. IMO if you want it to look good go with an actual 20” bar.

    I have a bumper with a 20” cutout and tried a cheap China bar and it didn’t look good with the gap. I finally ponied up for the BD.

    Here’s the measurements of the S8 20”, which I think most bumper manufacturers use for their bumpers.

    Sadly the Black Oak 20" I ordered comes in at 22" to the studs. Oh well.
