    I've been working on this for a little bit now and finally did it. The behind the grill 21" light bar on a gen 1 Tacoma.
    It took
    Long bolts
    Spacers (pvc pipe)
    Self fabricated brackets (simple stuff)
    Time.
    Patience.
    What are yalls opinions?
    I'm not a fan of the valence light bar because it's behind the license plate. And I don't like on top of the bumper it looks like braces.

    CBI ditch light brackets might not be here until early next week so those might have to wait a few extra days.
    Rear lights will be mounted like working lights. On the bed up by the cab.
    I'll show pics as soon as I get them put on.

    Too poor to list anything interesting.
    I have my lights in the grill. Shitty thing is that if they take the lights, they'll rip out the grill to do so.

    So I don't put it past some asshole to do it.

    But I'll leave my dash cam running if I leave my truck in a shady/questionable part of town.

    Lights are pretty much useless on the bedrail against the back window. Trust me. The light just bounces off the tailgate and throws very little behind the truck. You would be better off mounting some in your bumper.

    My lights are in the grille also. Never really thought about the sticky fingers.. that would suck a tad.

    Would like to play with a pre-2000 sway bar if anyone in the DFW area has one laying around.
