I replaced mine with this bull bar and lightbar and had money left over from the refund of the putco light.

Oh, man. That's why I was asking, but most definitely not what I was hoping to hear.

I love the flush, OEM look of the curved Putcos on the Platinum. Looks like it rolled of the line that way.

Anyone know of any others that fit similarly, but are built to last?

Everything that is manufactured will have a defect somewhere, somehow. I think our trucks are a good example of that.

Sounds like they (light bars) have a good warranty however.

I've had mine on for a year and a half and there's water in 9 of the lights. Kinda disappointing.

I've read where others have had the same experience. Weird for an IP69K rated light.

Thanks for your feedback. These are now $506 on Amazon. Crazy expensive, but I love the subtle OEM look.

Have you checked into having it replaced under warranty? I know I'd be rattling a few cages.

The warranty on Luminix Putco light bars is 2 years. Even though I've only had it mounted on my truck for 1.5 years, I purchased it over 2 years ago.

They're on sale on Amazon today for $488.13, if anyone cares. Without any positive feedback, I think I'm going to wait...
