Seriously, those lights are ridiculous. lol And the install you did looks great. Perfect location for the light bar. Good job, and while pricey, based on the clean install and the fact that you can use it while wheeling, and more importantly use it for S&R, seems like money well spent to me.

I loved your night pics on the cruiser, these are even more amazing and I love the mounting job - all around perfect setup

This thing just went on my list of must haves.

Looks soooo good. Hope they help in S&R. Congrats and good luck!

He's in Florida. They were likely almost up for breakfast already.

I'm surprised that you didnt' have to respond to the call that you probably caused with the people in those homes thinking they were being invaded.

That bar is awesome. I want one. Dang. I need to knock over a bank to get all the stuff I need. Oops. I just said that to a cop. Dang! lol

Looks like you're carrying your own helicopter spotlight...


Now you just need three more.... One for each side of the rack and one for the back...

Talk about being a beacon of light amongst the darkness...

Heh heh - I kicked them on when my brother was in front (unsuspecting) and it gave him a headache for an hour. I think it may have cooked part of his brain.

I will be posting a thread on the mounting, which will show a CAD drawing of the light mounting bar that I made, as well as various photos. I will post some side shots, as well.

To answer another question (above), this bar will mot interfere with the opening of a Wild Boar rack. It is mounted to the rack's frame, not to the rack itself. I don't have the opening rack on particular on this particular one, so I can't demonstrate.
