I have this light bar on my 15 silverado....not really impressed with the amount of light. It's like it's all flood and there is zero focus to the light. I would definitely stay away from the niilight wiring harness...somewhere in this thread you will see some pics I posted where it caught fire on me!

Actually....to be 100% honest with ya, I bought some Xenonhids LED fog light bulbs for the same truck, THEY put out greater light than what that niilight bar does

That's exactly what I was thinking lol the other good news is it almost works for what I need it for. I was only wanting it to illuminate UNDER the snow so I didn't think I was flying warp speed thru star wars lol

That's actually what I'm looking for. The HID upgrade gives me very good front coverage. I need a little more of the shoulders on some of these back country roads.

 

EasyEMan - that looks good. Did you weld your homemade brackets to the radiator support?

These are the ones I bought. Now mind you, I have the reflector housing just like everyone else, so the light kinda goes everywhere, but they still work way better than I was expecting. Very easy install, I paid the extra money for the "cancellers" like they told me I needed. These are just capacitors for those that don't know. Well, I installed with them on and the lights did not work. I took them out of the line and everything worked great, no warnings, no flicker.

As for the light bar, mine came with brackets, I just drilled the two 45 degree arms in front of the radiator and ran 2 bolts and 2 nuts with no issue

Nope, just drilled holes and bolted on.

Haha that's hilarious cuz I just had a Star Wars light speed experience the other week coming down the mountain when it was snowing

So to be clear you guys that dont have custom brackets, youre just drilling ahole dorecrly thru those support braces and mounting the light bar with that strictly those 2 holes?

 

 

I was thinking about getting that flat steel bar from home depot, mount that to the support brace. Then mount the light bar to steel bar. But if i can directly to those cross bars with no bouncing issues or anything i will save time n money and just go that route

I bolted straight to those Cross bars....no issues what so ever...don't waste your money on added steel, just get long bolts and you're fine

    • The "source" a woman, that writes the article is not a far right person. She's pretty well known "car person". She writes her own stuff, but yes it is initially posted under the Blaze, because they purchased the right to post it first, before it is posted on her own sites. It doesn't mean the info is any less valid. the article itself is not political It's not meant to discount any current actions in the Iran   Only posted the link because that's what has to be done to be legal to post the article. The Blaze is not a site I use. Lauren Fix's page pointed me there and I have to use a bypass method to look at the article since I'm not about to join the site. I've posted articles over the years from the Lefty sites, seems you didn't have a problem with that.   But you do you, keep looking at everything only through left/right lenses.   The 3 or 4 of you that participate in the some of the comments had ample chance to read everything. Other members that don't care for it, send in comments, because as they will point out, political talk is discouraged. Both "sides" complain    
    • Would be cool if someone made something most people would like.   Like a plug in tune that is to the end users desire minus messing with the throttle petal factory settings. Sport, economy and WFOT. 
    • I don’t. The source is a far-right fake news site perpetuated by Glenn Beck. Funny how you clean up political posts and then regurgitate garbage from politically tainted sites. 
    • Not a distraction. You miss the point of the article. It's not just for today's situation. Another way AI is being used and it may explain some of the prices changes when there is no apparent event to cause a 25 cent jump out of nowhere, only to immediately, the next day, begin to drop by 2 cents and so on. These situations were happening before the Iran thing fired off.   I used to be in the retail gas/service business. Pretty much a $1 increase in WTI would increase my price by maybe .10 cents. Now WTI can go down and retailers can get hit with a .35 cent increase out of nowhere.   I thought it was interesting read, since this is being used on all products we buy now
