Default LED Light Bar...

So I think I've decided to put a LED in that opening on the valence. The size 20". My only questions are what brand and what are the mounting options? I dont see the point in spending $700 on a Rigid Industries one when its not gonna be used 95% of the time. and its gonna be hidden for the most part. So thoughts, suggestions, etc...

EBay.

Nuts and bolts.

Google the rest. Not rocket science.

Isn't there another thread you can go be a smartass on and stop with mine? And FYI, "Ebay" does not manufacture lights.... Which is why i said BRAND!

My response falls in line with your post. "So thoughts, suggestions...etc". Sorry you didn't like or agree with it. Welcome to the internet.

EBay does not manufacture lights, you're correct. Think past the tip of your nose. Use eBay to the find lights.

Do you have a light bar? Do you have one mounted in the location i plan to mount mine? If you answered no to any of those questions, then you really dont have a dog in the fight. And if you do, your obviously not gonna answer me seriously so just STFU. And just because this is a forum, and you're correct, on the internet, and its not even dial up, i know pretty crazy right, that doesn't mean you have to be a cliche. So stop being a douche, and get over your self. Its a discussion forum, meant to, gee i dont know, DISCUSS THINGS....

Nifty trick with that link thing, did you learn that at night school at your local tech campus?

Default LED Light Bar...

Digi diodes, gg lighting, apex LEDs..to name a few brands. This is a 22" Amber Digi diode. I never got around to actually mounting it because it was a used bar when I bought it and had some leds go dim on me. They have really updated their products since then.

Go look at the back side of the bumper. There's a couple of bumper mounting brackets that you can weld/bolt flat bar to and make a mounting bracket. I'm not a whole lot of help but if you look at my picture of the mock up bracket I made you might could figure something out. It's been well over a year since I ventured there.

Well, since I don't meet those requirements, I guess I can't answer either. Heck, I should not bother posting on 90% of what I post for that matter.

Your being a dick. But I guess I will help anyway. My buddy has one and they welded l brackets to the metal piece above the hole. I also saw this somewhere on here
