    Looking to get into the lighting phase. What brackets is ever one running? For the light bars above the windshield. And how do they install?

    Relentless fab is probably the most popular. Most use nutserts to install. Or rivets. Your choice. Drilling is required either way unless you got a roof rack. Just hit up YouTube on how to install nutserts. Then you can run the wire down the windshield weather strip into engine bay, and into cab if using a switch.

    Lots of threads out there with installs. Just gotta search.

    Those are killer brackets! Any worries about water getting in with the roof brackets?

    I haven't had any leaks. I just took my time but as @toendanger stated you do have to drill holes and you don't have much metal between where you start drilling till you get all the way through. I just can't stand people drilling holes in the tops of the roofs of their trucks so I opted to go behind the weather stripping & down the A pillar into the engine bay. And here is where I mounted the switch for it.

    Go onto his website on IG @eazycompany. And it's a 42" bar measured at exactly 41.5"
