LED light bar

Hello TACÖ CRÜE

Recently bought a used '23 pro, I've done the anytime fog mod, but I'll soon be buying Baja Designs squadron pro lights to replace the rigid fog lights, as for light bars, what have you all done? above the bumper or in the grill??? I saw few options on Tacoma Lifestyle
Seen Rough Country 30" single row bar, but trimming is involved, I don't mind it, but is mounting easy? Saw Cali Raised double row, looks like no trimming involved, are the 30" bars overkill? Maybe 2 - 6,8,10, or 12 inch bars above the bumper? I'm guessing the light from the pro headlights and baja designs fogs is plenty and adding the 30s is a lot of light, I do a lot of beach, back roads and some county road driving, can you guys show me what you all have done???

Not lightbar specific, but if you're looking for extra light with your highbeams, start here.

 

BajaDesigns S8 behind the grille with the CaliRasiedLed brackets. IMO cleanest option unless you change bumpers and get one with provisions for it.

 

Diode Dynamics big bar in the grill. When offroad mine vibrates enuf that I want to have an epileptic fit. I wrote them and they said they’e never heard of it happening. Yes, it’s mounted correctly and the bolts are tight. Puts out a fuck ton of light tho!

 

All depends on where you want to put the light. Out of all of my lights my A pillar lights get used 10x more than everything else. Debated removing the roof and bumper light bars at one point but they look cool and still get used occasionally.

In my opinion aux lighting importance goes as follows.
Fog lights
A pillar lights
Bumper light bar
Chase/scene lights
Roof light bar

I use my A pillar lights to e tend the width of my high beams so I can better watch ditches further out for deer. The bumper bar is nice to better see a trail at night.

 

Thx, nice rig
