Picked up this light bar last week and mounted it behind my grill. It took a small amout of mod to the truck to mount it here but all in all it was easier than i originally thought. Amazed at how bright this thing is and I haven't even had a chance to really get out of the city yet. It's a two row bar but the top row is partially obstructed by my grill. I can't really tell when I turn it on though, the honeycomb doesn't seem to bother it too much.



Here is a pic of it on at night.

I would love to have one for my ranger, just cannot justify the cost.

Well I definitely couldn't justify the cost of the rigid bars, but this one was considerably less. This one is an Epic light, made in the same place as the rigid. I will get some good night time photos up as soon as I can find somewhere worth taking them. Everywhere I go there are signs felecting the light back at me and it ruins the pics. Gotta get out of town soon.

Sweet. I love mine. I have a 40" mounted on my Jeep. Thing is freakin BRIGHT!!! If it's on, you can even tell my headlights are on. Mine isn't a rigid either. I paid less than half of what a 40" rigid cost.

I got mine from Mobile Sound Systems in Arlington, guy there told me about them. He said he's carried several light bars and these are by far the best. They do have cree LEDs. A google search will find them.

Here's what I just took. It's not out of town like I'd like to get but gives you an idea of how it compares to my headlights.

Headlights only


Headlights with light bar

Could you have gone smaller or replaced the factory fogs with anything brighter? I would like to get "better" fog lights on my Tundra

I know rigid makes an adapter so that you can mount two of their dually led lights where the factory fog lights are on the 2007-13 tundra. The problem is these lights start at $130 each plust the $65 mount kit so for a little extra you can just go big. I guess it all depends on what your wanting.
