    I can't speak against Rigid, (but would never pay there sucker pricing) but please never say Bose is a "great" product!!! That crap is a bigger suckers trap than anything on the market, PERIOD!!!

    I can't stand this wind noise whistle from my roof bar guys.. ha. Think it might be from the fact it's mounted only an inch over my cab? Too much air being forced in between maybe? I may try taping some areas off on the bar too with electrical tape to see if I can locate it if it's not the gap. It's driving me insane. Lol.

    Good idea. Mine makes zero noise and has maybe 3/16" clearance.

    That's the reason I never looked into a roof rack. Any pics of your mount/setup?

    It was for comparison only. They use crap paper woofers in nice acoustic enclosures and charge an arm and a leg for it. If they just put decent products inside their "research designed" enclosures it might actually be worth it.

    I had that problem with my old LED bar. Get some of the door edge protectors (I found them at autozone) and put a few over the lower edges of the heat sink part of the LED bar, and it should go away. The edge guards have adhesive in them and mine stuck well.

    Nice I'll have to try that! Wondered if it was those heat sink fins. But yeah it starts at like 15/20mph and it gets insanely loud at 65. Especially with the windows down.
    Thanks guys.

    Mine is great under 55 :) Over 55 is a whole nother story though.. It's only about .25" above the line of the windshield, but it sits out a good 2-3" out past it!

    I've got their 20". I got it during a group buy on facebook. Great light. Its a shit ton brighter then my BlitzPro. harness was included. I had a shop install some light tabs for me and they were impressed with it. And they sell Rigid. They said it looked very similar

    Well I just ordered my dc engineering high output alternator. Can't wait. But I have to, back ordered 2-3 weeks. Cost me an arm, almost a leg too. $415 after shipping. :eek:
    Hopefully it's badass as it looks. And hopefully see an increase in output. Kinda doubt it. But at least no more flickering at low idle.
