I ran a light bar above the windshield on my JK. I didnt notice any glare off the hood. Anvil. It lit up in front of the jeep as needed. And since they are only allowed off road, not like i was speeding anyway. I will be putting some on the jT, eventually.
that being said, they are 100%...

Looking at a set on amazon. of course need to read into it, see what all is involved. but do the factory melt snow?
I know that is an issue with alot of them. ie jw speaker added the heated lens
I unplugged the switch under the hood. Two switches up front, the one closest to driver side.
Turns on the fault light on dash, but it's not noticable.
And it was free

So both are 56" wide.
I am sure it has been mentioned already
But, that means the racks for the taco will fit the gladiator, at a lower price/more options then the companies making glad specific ones
