    I Got the deal from the first page of this thread. Also ordered one of the same switches on the bottom of this thread. Then paid a shop to do the install.

    The brackets are very well made and durable. The shop doing the install said they are some of the best made brackets they have seen and commented how well everything fit together.

    But i didn't do the work so I'm not sure all the specifics.

    The caliraised brackets are a different set than what Chris sold on here. Not as thick or nearly as nice/ rigid. As,e overall concept but cheaper execution at a cheaper price.

    Go back through your wiring. You have a short somewhere most likely. Check all your connections and grounds.

    Thanks but I have triple checked, but I will check again . I followed the instructions here to the T.

    I had a mechanic look at it . We found the relay was bad . Replaced it and doing same thing. We don't hear the relay come in.

    Is the wiring the same for single row LEDs ?

    I am sold out now and won't have any for sale for a while. Cali Raised sells their mount that is different but puts the LED in a similar place. They are good guys.

    The single rows have the same requirements. I would go to a place that does vehicle electrical to see what is going on. Sounds like the wiring is not right, but I am not a wiring guy and diagnosing wiring is almost impossible via the forum. There are a lot of talented guys out there, just gotta find a shop that does that kind of work, like and offroad shop or something.

    Thanks Chris I am taking it to his shop in the am . I got too dark to work anymore tonight. The next step it to check the light bar. He feels confident in the way it is wired ,but will check it out anyway.

    LED is super easy to check, just apply power and ground. I am sure you will get it figured out!

    If you start getting a squeaking sound check all the light bar bracket bolts....

    I thought it was my suspension or some other crap in the front right... Turns out to be the brackets loosening up.

    Im glad it was something minor but took a while to figure out where it was coming from. Easily fixed though.

    Can't wait for Chris (@MojaveMadman [OP]) to begin fabricating new brackets for stealth mount again.... Hopefully real soon. Anxious to install my LED light Bar....

    What light bars did you guys end up going with? I ordered one from Amazon and they sent me the 7" one instead of the 32".. TWICE!! Now they have to do an investigation to figure out why I keep getting the wrong size. Looking for something else that works well and isn't too expensive.

    No, the switch has 2 LEDs in it - 1 when the dash lights are on and 1 when it is turned on. I didn't wire the "red 2" wire (which is the dash light one) so mine only lights up when turned on and goes off when the switch is off. @Tx_Taco

    Same I went with Cali raised, got it as part of the package deal from Chris at apex fab works with his mounting brackets. He's sold out now and idk when he will be making more. I suggest going with the package deal right from Cali. They have great customer service and @Jake Long15 is a breeze to work with. Helped me track down my relay bracket within an hour of sending a message at 8 at night. A+ company for sure, a lot less stressful than a major company like Amazon, who can usually care less about orders.
