The 14.5 in version of this LED bar appears to be similar to what he used

Denalion22, I love your truck - mine is very similar but silver. Can you give me a little more information on how you mounted the light bar in your front bumper? Does it interfere with the shudders behind it? What size is it? How did you get rid if the posts that a front license plate bracket attaches to? Thank you!

I currently have a lightbar wired thru a harness with fuse and relay to a on/off switch. Is there a way to have it also turn on when i turn hi beams on? But still be able to turn on and off for in town driving? I would like to be able to turn it on and off and also come on automatic with hi beams (when i choose) so do i need one of those on/off/on switches? What do i add for wiring or do i just tap in the headlight wire and wiretapp to the lightbar power. Thats my question

Oh. Yes. You can use a relay along with the current wiring harness. Look up on YouTube how to turn something on with two switches with a relay.

Will this work? Switch one would be on #1 on a three position switch (on/off/on) and switch two would be on #2
