    I’m putting in a fuse panel and lights in my bedside cubby, the plan is to mount lights on the sides and back of the rack to have camp/scene lighting.

    I’m trying to figure out the best options for wide angle lighting that is easily mountable to the bed rack. Lots of the scene lights look great but most are designed to be mounted to a vertical surface, since the mounting plates on the bed rack angle slightly inward I’m not sure they would work, I thought about looking for a mount for cubes upside down on the underside of the top bar of the rack also, but SL not sure of a company that makes acceptable mounts for the diameter of the rack.

    Has anyone done this, and have a light recommendation?

    Personal recommendation is 6-8 rock lights under the truck for scene lightning. Nice diffused light for being around camp.

    Highly recommend KC cyclones. Great for mounting on vertical surfaces. Great quality, good price point, 28 year warranty and really versatile mounting options

    Also recommend National Luna Touch lights. Have 6 of those in the back, and 6 cyclones under the truck

    I had a Voodoo rack and mounted a national Luna Touch light on a slide under the bed rack frame.
    You can see it in the second picture
