    Sweet. I pretty much want to do the same (except have the 30" on my basket). If you can, can you take just the hood lights, then the grill, then all of it? It will help a lot!

    Okay but it will be photo heavy

    and here we go,
    I used the local high school parking lot with a 100 yard marking on it for the marching band to practice. The building in the distance is about 20-30 yards past the last mark, I know I need to re-aim the 30"led combo bar up a bit and I know the grill mesh is eating up some of the light.

    All photos where taken with my Samsung Galaxy 4 active set on auto, sitting on top of the driver side mirror.

    low beams only about 120-130 yards away from building
    20140719_205932_cae41d83f8249b536ac0ac2e2dcc1d154a09f777.jpg

    Low beams and Rigid SRM2 Driving in OEM fog with Amber lens
    20140719_205954_1cb6b11b89c9058aa383b188f98d45de1d1a545d.jpg

    High beams only

    30" led bar combo pattern behind grill only
    20140719_210045_87baa6a8834deb907298a192e1675c4c8dc1311b.jpg

    Rigid Hyperspot SRQ2 only

    20140719_210202_b62cde5e3fe051466915a005a6481e46ca7211e3.jpg


    Then I got chased off by the cops/security before I could adjust the light bar, something about private property.

    I picked up the Rigid SRM2 driving light and bracket here. I also ordered the SRQ2 from TapAuto
    http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/li...es-sr-m-fog-light-conversion-2012-tacoma.html

    I used the CBI Ditch light brackets to mount the SRQ2
    http://www.cbioffroadfab.com/products/2nd-gen-toyota-tacoma-products/t2-ditch-light-brackets

    Picked up the 30" double row from here

    Thanks for the great post Luke! Every setup needs a little fine tuning but once you get that 30" aimed up it should be perfect. That hyperspot is impressive - I think I need one myself.

    Very curious seeing how you mounted that big of a light behind the grill. The only mounts I've seen are for a 20" bar.

    Nice man. Much appreciated! I just upgraded to a 4D bar and have a 3D bar left over. I will see if it's possible with an OEM grill.
