    I got a cheap 32" bar..if I ever replace it ...
    I'm thinking of using 34" bar..?
    I just hate the gaps on either end.
    I'd rather have the whole lower valence be a lightbar :rolleyes:
    Must be a member who already tried ?

    A few mods here and there and counting....
    Agreed. The gaps bug me. On the refreshed 2gen front bumper, it looks perfect.

    How has that bar held up? I was looking at the same ones for the cheap price.

    Was it a Nilight? The ones I looked at had over 1200 reviews with 4.75 stars.

    Easy to do. There are a few bracket options out there. Caliraised has some good options.

    So if you select the link we have the Mounts (Only) for $59.99 But if you select the box you can add a 32" 5D Optic Light bar and it will come to $269.99. That will be your full kit ready to go. Don't need anything else and you can add a oem switch.

    Are these more for cosmetics or do they vastly improve forward lighting while off roading?

    Which light bar are you referring to? I'm still waiting for my @CaliRaisedLed order to ship. Ordered it a week ago. I've heard there very good for forward lighting. I'll update and post pics once it get delivered

    32" 5D Optic light bar. I'm trying to decide on this or the caliraised 52" curved light bar above the windshield. I run coonhounds at night and go down some sketchy trails and I want to light them up.

    The cosmetics are benign compared to the reach of light in the darkness.

    @CaliRaisedLed

    love this setup! A couple questions? Will the location of the bar mess with TSS in anyway? Also, does removing the Air Deflectors cause any warranty issues with Toyota?

    Thanks!

    No issues with the sensor and as far as I know when I got it installed I took it somewhere and they sidnt have to remove or cut anything the lighting is amazing I can actually ride with just the lightbar on and when my headlights are in and I turn on the lightbar it overpowers them
