Default OPT7 22" LightBar

installed my OPT7 22" light bar c2 series! super bright at night, install was a little tricky, had to take off front plate and drill my own holes from the bottom, but like all truck projects, none are as easy as expected

Looks good. Did you get the Spot or Spot/Flood ? Any LED's burnt out? Have you got it wet yet to see if it fogs up?

You had it easy! I just finished mounting my 3rd 32" bar on my 2005. The first two that I mounted a few months ago took me 10 hours to measure and fabricate a behind-the-grille bracket. Third bar I just put on today in the lower bumper hole. Only took 2 hours.

You'll like the extra light. Mine saved me this past weekend from smacking an elk's head. It was standing on the edge of the road with his head over the pavement. 100% sure my stock lights would not have let me see the animal.

Not if anyone else can see it. It will blind them.

You might be safer in the day time, although I wouldn't in the day because there's no point of driving with a light bar on in the day.. And at night time, I drive with it on only if I'm the only car on the roads. It's way too bright and may blind other drivers
