That looks great! Can you link the exact light you purchased, and the mounting kit?

I'd love to install this setup, but I would like to see a link to the light and how you mounted it up behind the grille.

Thanks!

 

The vendor is continually messing with the price and shipping costs.

Right now it look s like the vendor is selling the light bar for $166.00.


It'll come with a cheap harness that I did not use and without a weather pack connector. I used Hella weather pack relay and relay base, and made my own weather pack connectors. Inside the cab, I used a 6 pin trailer connector so I could pull the center thingy out with the elevator switch installed. I tapped power off of the fuse box with a mini add-a-fuse thingy (I had to nibble at the fuse box cover to make it fit.

Wire wise, I came into the cab at the rubber grommet in the front passenger floor under the carpet (at the same place as the wires for Amp Powerboards) and ran the wire to the center console under the carpet, siliconing the grommet before buttoning everything up. Power and ground were run behind the glove box and zip tied everywhere because I loath rattles. I used shrinkwrap on soldered connections and under the hood and used the accordion-looking plastic stuff to protect the wiring harness I made as well as wrapping it in Scotch Super 33 electrical tape.

It all turned out well.

FYI, these light bars are all using the same housing. The only real difference in them is quality control don't let these resellers fool you.

 

Thanks for the feedback. How did you mount the light behind your grille? Did you use a special kit or special mounting setup? I could not tell from your video.

Thanks again for the info!

 

In my case, I have an Ecoboost intercooler that I, for the moment, put a 4"x16"x1" 4 pound foam on. The light is mounted at its normal mounts on the sides to the metal grill subframe and the rear of the light rests on and is dampened by the 4 pound foam.

If the foam breaks down or doesn't work, I'll drill a hole straight through the rear of the cooling fins and use two locknuts to adjust a carriage bolt up and down as a third leg. I'll put a rubber grommet on the head of the carriage bolt.

Understand that this is Minnesota and outside projects don't always get completed in one day when it gets cold outside.

 

N-Fab lightbar with Hella 700's (with 100w bulbs) in the center and 500's with stock bulbs on the outsides. Thinking about buying LED's to replace my backup lights and maybe a HID retrofit down the road...or keep pestering my buddy that works at the auto recyclers to keep an eye out for a set of OEM HID's. For now have the Philips X-treme Vision bulbs in the factory housings



Before upgrading the center bulbs. All 4 aux lights and highbeams

 

Nice setup. Was the N-Fab light bar easily bolted on? Did it bolt right up, or did you have to mod anything?

Also, do you have a link to where you bought the light bar? I have a 2010 F150 Platinum and am looking for a bolt on option that is similar to what you pictured.

Thanks in advance!

It's a super easy install, couple of bolts and its on. I got it on sale through 4 wheel parts. They're still available, just make sure you order the one for your year of truck, they are model year specific.

 

Wow, I'm really digging the look of your truck. Its very simple looking but in a good way! 👍👍
