Default Need Help figuring out what size light bar to get

I am looking to put a led light bar in my bumper hole on my 2008 f150. I am not for sure how big of one to get. I have seen up to a 30" and I really like how it fills up the gap. Just not sure how to install it. If you have pics of how you did it please post.

Depending on what brand light you go with most of them come with a U shaped mounting bracked that you can just secure on the bumper. I have all Rigid bars and they all came with the mounting bracket.

I just put two 32" bars behind the grille of my 2005 lariat. Figuring out how to mount two of them back there was a real challenge. One would be pretty easy down low.

I stuck one of mine up to the lower bumper hole and it would fit perfectly. You'd have to take all that honeycomb plastic out at the edges. To mount it, I'd mark where the hole is onto the frame behind it, remove the bumper, drill holes in the frame, mount the light, and reattach the bumper. The lights come with brackets for the end of the bar that will mount to any flat surface assuming a hole can be drilled. Stainless hardware was included.
